Senator Ike Ekweremadu has been banned by the University of Lincoln, United Kingdom, after being appointed as a visiting professor of Corporate and International Linkages.

David, according to the prosecution, was trafficked from Nigeria and entered the UK with the passport of a 21-year-old man.
London Mail quoted the university’s spokesperson as saying that Ekweremadu’s duties at the institution have been suspended for the time being.
The University’s spokesperson said; “Visiting professors are often, as is in this case, non-resident at the university.
“We are deeply concerned about the nature of these allegations, but as this is an active police investigation, we cannot comment further at this stage.
“Whilst this matter is subject to investigation, this person will not be undertaking any duties as visiting professor at Lincoln.”
