The Federal University, Dutsinma in Katsina State has dismissed three workers and expelled nine students for engaging in examination malpractices, the Acting Vice Chancellor, Prof. Armuyau Bichi, has said.

Bichi, who made the disclosure while briefing newsmen on Monday in Dutsinma, said the students and workers were `caught red-handed’ during the semester examinations.

“The university anti-malpractice committee has investigated the cheating by the students before taking the decision to dismiss them.

“The committee also investigated the role played by the members of staff; they were found wanting and the management of the university dismissed them.

“The university relied on the evidence against the students and the members of staff before they were dismissed,” the VC said.

The Vice-Chancellor commended Katsina State Government for the provision of infrastructure in the university.
