The management of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) has restricted all social activities on the campus after 6 pm daily.

Mr Inya Egwu, the Acting Public Relations Officer of the university, who made this announcement in a statement issued on Monday, noted that the curfew became necessary after the murder of Chiebonam Nweze on the 12th of September.

According to a report by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Chiebonam, a businessman, was stabbed to death.

Nweze was a guest at a bonfire night planned by the Department of Archaeology and Heritage Studies at UNN before the incident occured.
