I don’t really know what the truth is amidst the controversy surrounding Ateneo Blue Eagle Ikeh Chibueze. I will leave that to due process. 

It’s easy, of course, to believe what we’ve been reading on the broadsheets and on different online media. It’s also easy to believe whatever we’ve heard from “credible sources” or “people from the inside.” 

By and large, however, it seems like what has been put out there stems from only one side of the issue, and when we start bearing down judgment on someone (be it Ikeh or the other party) based on a skewed understanding of events, then we fall (knowingly or not) into the trap of being prejudiced and unfair. 

Again, I don’t really know the truth. I am not privy to whatever allegedly transpired.
