The University of Ghana has expelled three students after they were found guilty of impersonation during end-of-semester examinations, in violation of the university’s examination regulations.
The affected students Christian Owusu Yeboah (ID: 10969509), Linda Attah Lambongyi (ID: 10965543), and Doris Bikpe (ID: 11357985) were implicated in separate incidents of impersonation during the First Semester of the 2023/2024 academic year.
According to an official notice, Yeboah and Lambongyi were involved in impersonation during the MKTG301: Principles of Marketing exam, while Bikpe was found guilty of impersonation during the UGBS103: Introductory French examination.
Their actions were deemed to be in direct breach of Regulation 11.12 of the University of Ghana Regulations on Examinations, which strictly prohibits impersonation and classifies it as a serious academic offense.
As a result, all three students have been:
1. Awarded a Grade Z for the affected semester (1st Semester, 2023/2024 academic year), indicating the nullification of their results for that period.
2. Expelled from the University, effectively terminating their academic relationship with the institution.
Meanwhile, fourteen students have also been suspended for two academic years due to disruptive behaviour and violations of school rules.
The university clarified that the disciplinary actions followed investigations by its Disciplinary Committee into multiple cases of student misconduct. The affected students are barred from participating in all academic and extracurricular activities during the suspension period.
In a related development, the university has also sanctioned 97 students for engaging in exam malpractice. Following official hearings that confirmed breaches of examination regulations, appropriate penalties were imposed on the students involved.
Additionally, two students have been formally reprimanded for actions deemed inconsistent with the university’s standards.
The university reaffirmed its commitment to upholding academic integrity and discipline across the institution.
