The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari has declared that Universities in the country must sack any lecturer harassing students sexually.
Whilst speaking and commending Obafemi Awolowo University,
In his words: “I commend the Council and Management of this great citadel of learning for dealing, very decisively, with cases of sexual harassment. In fact, this University deserves commendation on the way and manner it is tackling sexual and other related harassment headlong, without minding whose ox is gored.
“I want other institutions of higher learning to emulate O.A.U in summarily terminating the appointment or dismissing any lecturer who uses or is using his advantageous position to sexually harass our young, unassuming, innocent, and impressionable girls.”
He made it clear that We cannot continue to entrust the lives of our youths in the hands of irresponsible lecturers.
So universities have been given every right to take the right actions against any lecturer who is a sexual predator against it’s students.
