Students of the English Language Department at the Federal University Lokoja in Kogi State on Friday gave a senior lecturer a dose of his own medicine.
The lecturer, accused of always harassing female students sexually, was stripped naked by a number of his victims who banded together to carry out the action.
The lecturer whose full name was yet to be ascertained as at the time of filing this report, was said to be notorious in sexually harassing female undergraduates of the English Department where he teaches.
According to a report, the lecturer was stripped to his boxers by his students. It took the intervention of security personnel at the university to save him from further disgrace.
The lecturer was however interrogated by the ladies during which he implicated his colleagues, including the Head of the Department (HOD), claiming that they usually provide him with names of female students to either “pass or fail” based on their level of intimacy or absence with them.
Spokesperson of the university, Daniel Iyke, said that the management was already aware of the development and had immediately set up machinery to investigate the case, as per Nation Newspaper report.
According to him: “The thing is that the university has its own internal mechanism in taking care of it.
“The report has been brought to the attention of the vice-chancellor, and he has set up a body to look into it. This was done immediately and the report or outcome will be made known as soon as it comes out. At this point, this is all I can volunteer.”
