Cultists in the Cross Rivers State University of Technology, Calabar campus on Monday killed a 500- level Electrical Engineering student simply identified as James.
James, who was suspected to be a cultist too, was gunned down by members of rival gang while writing the first semester examination.
According to the report, after noticing that the gunshot didn’t kill James, the attackers decided to use axe on him until he was confirmed dead.
After hearing gunshots and being alerted that a student has been shot dead at the Electrical Engineering Department, some lecturers in the Civil Engineering Department of the institution made a mild announcement in the Exam Halls where Civil 500L students were writing their final paper, that all cult members should either leave the hall quietly or bear the security risk themselves, as there is no security presence in the examination premises.
It was reported that a few of the students got up, submitted empty sheets and Ieft. Some even forcefully collected from their colleagues in order to leave in groups.
The corpse of James has been taken to mortuary.
