FUNAAB VC Threatens to sack any lecturer involved in Sex-for-Marks

FUNAAB Vows to Sack Any Lecturer involved in Sex-For-Marks.

The Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) Professor Kolawole Salako, has said the management of the institution will sack any lecturer involved in sex-for-marks.

Salako said the university in the past had sacked some lecturers who were indicted for demanding sex from students to increase their marks.

He assured the students of the institution’s support saying, “we won’t condone sex-for-marks in this university. If anybody is violated, the violator will not go scot-free.”

This is coming following the suspension of Professor Richard Akindele, a lecturer at the Department of Accounting at Obafemi Awolowo, who was recently in the news for demanding five rounds of sex from a female student.

Prof Akindele was exposed on Monday, April 9, 2018, when the audio conversation between him and the female student went viral.

In the four-minute audio clip, the lecturer was heard demanding sex with the yet-to-be-identified student five times before he could upgrade her 33 marks to a pass.

However, following the report of the investigative panel set up by Obafemi Awolowo University Management, Prof Akindele, who is also said to be a Pastor at a Christ Apostolic Church in Ile-Ife, Osun State was suspended.
