ATTENTION PLEASE!<\/p>\n

Osula Daniel Enahoro is a Nigerian whose whereabouts are unknown right now.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nHe was last seen on February 5th, on Facebook when he made a short post saying that he had been arrested.
\nThe genesis of Daniel\u2019s trails began in his final year, when the HOD of the Civil Engineering Department, Delta State University, Mr. Hillary Owamah ,began to extort his students who were working on their final project.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBeing a very vocal person, Daniel spoke up and the HOD decided to punish him. A test which saw him scoring the highest was re-taken and he failed it.
\nThis automatically translated to an F in said course.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Daniel reported to the relevant authorities, but nothing was done.
\nHe came on Facebook to air his grievances, and it got the school authorities angry.
\nThe HOD alleged that Daniel threatened him and the DSS invited him for questioning a number of times.<\/p>\n

The school set up a panel and met with him severally. But nothing positive came out of such meetings.
\nAfter a period of back and forth with the school management, Daniel was asked to spend an extra year in school; for a course he did not fail.<\/p>\n

At first, he refused. He tried to fight the verdict, but he was advised to just get it over and done with.
\nA couple of weeks ago, he solicited for funds and paid for the extra year.<\/p>\n

Then DELSU decided to show her hand.
\nA publication was made on the school website.
\nDaniel Osula Enahoro was rusticated in 500 level, for \u2018breaching of matriculation oath.\u2019<\/p>\n

Now, he shared the oath on his timeline and there was no such clause.
\nHis only crime was going public with his issue.
\nOf course, he vowed to fight the evil verdict.
\nBut from all indications, someone is not taking any chances.<\/p>\n

Daniel has always been a law-abiding citizen, so nobody needs a seer to know who arrested him.
\nNow, the problem is that, not even his family has heard from him since then, and that\u2019s very worrisome.
\nThis country and it\u2019s system has failed us.
\nBut we cannot let them kill us off too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nPlease, this is also an appeal to anyone who can or knows somebody who could help.
\nDaniel has nobody to speak for him.
\nWe are giving him a voice on social media.
\nBut it is not enough.
\nHe did not deserve to be expelled.
\nHe needs to fight that verdict.<\/p>\n

We are here on earth for all of us.
\nIf you can help this young man with a promising future, I beg you, do not look away from this case.
\nThose in authority have gotten away with a lot of atrocities for too long.
\nThey should not be allowed to get away with this too.<\/p>\n

Nobody deserves to have five years of struggling in a Nigerian university flushed down the drain, for speaking out against injustice.
\nIt could be anybody tommorow.
\nIf you cannot help, someone on your list could.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIf you\u2019re on Twitter, please use the hashtag #freeOsulaDaniel and any other you deem fit.
\nI\u2019ve made a thread summarizing the story, so it\u2019ll be easy for those interested in retweeting.
\nHandle is @eTashaa.
\nPlease, let\u2019s do this for him, for all of us.
\nYour retweet could save his life.
\nWe\u2019re not asking for likes or votes.
\nJust retweets.
\nI\u2019m not active on there, so could those who are, and have a large following, implore their followers to make this go viral?
\nLet it not be said that we folded our arms and did nothing, because we could not physically help Daniel.
\nLet is not be said that our friendships on Facebook ends at likes, reactions and comments.
\nI had to bring this here because I believe that someone can help pls.
\nIf you can\u2019t, but you\u2019re active on Twitter, please retweet.
\nThank you.<\/p>\n
