Criminal elements entered the main hostel of the University, harassed some students and stole mobile phones and power banks. No serious injuries were, however, reported.

Describing the incident as unprecedented in the history of the university, the VC said adequate measures have been put in place to ensure the university is now safer.

Ikelegbe, in a statement, added that efforts were being made to ensure that the criminals who perpetrated the acts were apprehended and made to face the wrath of the law.

The statement read in part, “The Vice Chancellor, Professor Augustine Ikelegbe, and Management of Western Delta University, express deep sympathy with our dear students, staff, parents and stakeholders, over the robbery incident that occurred in the early hours of Thursday, 20th June, 2024, when some criminal elements entered the Main Campus, and harassed students in the Main Hostel, some of whom lost phones and power banks.
