The student simply identified as Captain Walz was said to have gone to the lecturer’s office on Thursday, November 11. 2021, to seek her help because he didn’t observe the compulsory Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES).
The lecturer, whose name was given as Mrs Zakariya, who is also the student’s project supervisor, was said to have refused to help him.
Following the lecturer’s refusal, Walz reportedly became furious and assaulted the lecturer, while inflicting severe injuries on her.

He added that the Vice Chancellor of the university ordered that the victim be treated on the bill of the institution.
