Uniport Governing Council Commissions Revitalised Bottling Plant, Advances Infrastructure and Staff Development. The Governing Council of University of Port Harcourt has commissioned the institution’s revitalised bottling plant, marking a significant stride in its drive for sustainability and institutional growth. The commissioning ceremony, held over the weekend, was led by the Chairman of Council, Senator Mao Ohuabunwa. The upgraded facility, now equipped with modern, state-of-the-art machinery, boasts an impressive production capacity of up to 8,000 bags per day. This development is expected to significantly boost the University’s internally generated revenue while enhancing overall operational efficiency. As part of its oversight functions, the Council also undertook an inspection of key infrastructure projects across the University. Among these was the Federal Government-backed solar farm project, designed to ensure uninterrupted power supply within the campus. Additionally, the Council reviewed progress on an ongoing hostel accommodation project under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement aimed at addressing the growing housing needs of students. In a move that underscores its commitment to academic excellence and staff development, the Council approved the promotion of several academic staff to the ranks of Professor and Associate Professor. Furthermore, seven staff members were elevated to the rank of Directors, alongside the promotion of Deputy Registrars, as well as personnel within the Bursary, Audit, and other administrative cadres. Reaffirming the Council’s vision for the institution, Senator Ohuabunwa emphasized its commitment to positioning the University on the global stage. He noted that sustained investment in infrastructure, academic advancement, and innovation will not only strengthen the University’s standing but also establish it as a benchmark for excellence in higher education. With these developments, the University of Port Harcourt continues to demonstrate a clear focus on growth, resilience, and global competitiveness. 📌 Join the Unique Stoary Community on Telegram let's have real time discussions on latest happenings and matters arising in Uniport.

After more than a year of trial, Rivers State High Court has convicted and sentenced a 400-level Petrochemical Engineering student of the University of Port Harcourt, Damian Okoligwe, to death by hanging for the murder of his girlfriend, Justina Otuene, a 300-level Biochemistry student. Delivering the judgment, Justice Chiwen Nsirim-Nwosu ruled that the prosecution, led by Charles Obediah-Mbaba, proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt, establishing that Okoligwe committed the crime. The court also held that Justina’s death resulted directly from the actions and conduct of the convict, Damian Okoligwe. The prosecution lawyer, Charles Obediah-Mbaba, who spoke to our correspondent after the judgment, hailed the court for ensuring that justice was served on the matter. Osat-awaji Otuene, elder brother to the late Justina Otuene, also spoke. Recall that the case first came to light after operatives of the Ozuoba Police Division received a complaint from a neighbour about a foul odour coming from Damian Okoligwe’s room. Police say officers responded immediately, forced open the door, and discovered a Ghana-must-go bag containing the lifeless body of Justina Otuene. The murder trial began in May 2024, two months after the Rivers State Government took over the case. #UnportInfo
