Viral Video: I Wasn’t Expelled For Twerking, Says UNN Student
A medical student from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Mirabel Obi, has broken silence on her alleged expulsion from the school because she twerked in a bikini on campus.
A viral video on Saturday showed a lady in bikini dancing amid cheers from other students. Alongside that video was another one, where a man, identified as the UNN Dean of Students stated that the student would be expelled and prosecuted for her actions.
Taking to her Instagram page, the student cleared the air on her alleged expulsion, stating that she wasn’t expelled and that the school authorities ransacked her room.
She said, “It is no news that a female UNN student was expelled from UNN after supposedly stripping to win 10k in a dance competition. Well, I am that student. Normally I would let this slide because I am not clout chasing and I owe no one an explanation, but I’m tired of seeing different fake news on the story and at this moment. I feel it is pertinent to address this issue publicly.”
The student then stated the prize was N30,000 not N10,000 as earlier alleged, adding that the competition was for a concert awareness in her school.
She continued, “I have watched a lot of girls compete in the past and what they wore was nothing better than mine. It was equivalent to what I wore and sometimes worse because after all, we feel we are dancing in front of our fellow females, but then I feel the amount I made was the reason for the video going viral.
“The Dean of Student Affairs got hold of the video and I really do not know what they told him about me that made him rage in so much anger and also to make the decision to expel me. I am not and was never expelled because we all know that you cannot expel a student on the ground of twerking.
