According to PUNCH, shortly before the management slammed the indefinite suspension, the police from the Nsukka Area Command came and picked him up.
“As we speak, he is currently at the Nsukka Police Area Command. But what they do with him is what I don’t know,” said one of the sources who works in the university but pleaded anonymity.

Although our correspondent could not independently ascertain the day the incident occurred, the university said he would be investigated.
In a statement signed on Tuesday, by its acting Public Relations Officer, Chief Okwun Omeaku, the university said the randy lecturer had been suspended indefinitely while clarifying that he was not a professor.
According to the statement, the indefinite suspension was to ensure a thorough investigation into the incident by a disciplinary panel constituted by the university.
“The indefinite suspension is with immediate effect pending the outcome of a disciplinary panel constituted by the university to investigate the incident,” the statement noted.
“For the records, the University of Nigeria has a zero tolerance for sexual misconduct involving our staff and students. The UNN is among the few universities in the country that has a Sexual Harassment Policy, which guides the relationship between our staff and students in particular and among our male and female staff members.
“As a university, we are committed to protecting our students from any form of abuse and exploitation, and the university management will not hesitate to punish Mr Mfonobong David Udoudom, according to our rules, if he is found guilty by our disciplinary panel,” the statement noted. 
In the viral video, a voice was overheard saying, “We have been following this case from day one, wre have tracks, all the voice notes and everything.”bby
Another voice, supposedly, a member of the task force was overheard saying in Igbo language, “If you want toybhg questions, ask now, it is not when we have taken him out that people will start saying ru…sh.”
