FACT CHECK: Is the Uniport Smartphone Ban Memo Real?
A memo regarding a "Revised Policy on the Use of Mobile Devices" has been circulating since yesterday afternoon, causing quite a stir within the University of Port Harcourt community. However, after comparing this document with verified memos recently issued by the Dean of Student Affairs, several red flags suggest it is fake.
At Unique Stoary, we prioritize accuracy over speed to ensure our community stays informed, not misinformed. Here is why this document didn't pass our verification check:
1. Inconsistent Formatting
Official Uniport memos follow a specific template, as seen in the verified documents from March 13th and 14th regarding departmental dues and the Director of Socials. This viral smartphone memo lacks the standard "Memorandum" layout and uses a header style that doesn't align with official university administrative records.
2. Unbelievable Content
The message—claiming an immediate prohibition of all smartphones (specifically naming brands like Samsung, iPhones, and Tecno) in favor of "button phones"—is highly impractical for a modern academic environment. A policy of this magnitude would typically require a formal rollout from the University Senate.
3. Signature Discrepancies
The signature on the smartphone memo does not match the official signature of the Dean of Student Affairs, Prof. Chima Chibuike Wokocha found on verified university documents. The "official" signature is consistent across genuine memos, while the viral one appears to be totally different.
4. No Official Confirmation
The SUG Director of Information (DOI) typically posts official memos almost immediately. As of now, no official student government or Management channel has verified or shared this document.
In an era of "viral" misinformation, don't be the one to spread it. For genuine, double-checked Uniport news and campus updates, follow Unique Stoary on all platforms: WhatsApp Channel, Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), Cikamo, and TikTok @uniquestoary.
Help Stop the Spread: Share this post with your departmental and faculty groups to ensure no student falls for this hoax.
Verdict: Always verify information through the SUG Secretariat or the Dean's office before sharing.
