Sex-for-mark: students strip Lecturer

Sex-for-mark: students strip Lecturer, threaten to beat him up 

Mr Ifeanyi Ugwu Raphael,

In a classic display of low moral standards among some lecturers in Nigeria’s higher institutions, Mr Ifeanyi Ugwu Raphael, a lecturer in the department of Theatre Arts, Delta State University, Abraka was at the weekend allegedly caught in one of his female student’s room in a s*x-for-marks scandal.

Information Nigeria gathered that the 400 level student (name withheld) of Theatre Arts was carrying over Mr Ifeanyi’s course ‘THA 203’ and in a bid to lure her to sleep with him, promised to upgrade her scores.

It was further learnt that the student’s refusal to accede to her lecturer’s amorous desire was the reason she has been failing the course since her second year.

Sources who narrated the events leading to the randy lecturer’s exposure and show of shame, said last Friday, Mr Ifeanyi, who is working towards earning his Ph.D degree from same university, had gone to see his student with the understanding that he will come along with her exam scripts and after sleeping with her, upgrade the scores immediately.

However, unknown to him, the student had her own game plan. It was learnt that she had arranged with her male friends and neighbours to barge into her room whose door she left unlocked once she has gotten Mr Ifeanyi undressed.

The girl’s plan worked out and Ifeanyi was dragged out without any clothes on with the help of her neighbours and male friends.

The lecturer begging the students for mercy

Realising his game was up and the damaging effect it would have on his career, the lecturer pleaded and asked for forgiveness but the now angry group insisted on taking their pound of flesh as he was molested and told to pose for photographs as evidence of his misdeeds.

According to some students of the Theatre Arts department who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of being victimized, they said the lecturer was in the habit of blackmailing his female students into sleeping with him just as they accused him of often bragging of being untouchable because he purportedly belongs to a dreaded confraternity on campus.

The students added that for male students who fail Ifeanyi’s course, they are forced to part with five thousand (5,000) or risk carrying over the same course.

Reacting to the allegation when contacted, Mr Ifeanyi said he had nothing to say as the school authority is handling the case.
