The management of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile- Ife, has reacted to the scandal involving one of its lecturers, Pastor Richard Akindele, who allegedly requested that a student have sex with him in return for marks.

The university through its spokesman, Abiodun Olanrewaju said, “The university is aware and we are setting up machinery to critically look at the issue to determine the veracity, otherwise there won’t be conclusion.”

The sex -for -marks scandal came to light via a leaked telephone conversation between the lecturer, a professor of management and accounting at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile -Ife, and a female undergraduate in the school.

In the leaked audio, the student repeatedly addressed the other person in the conversation as ‘Prof . Akindele’, who, later, protested: ‘stop calling my name!’

The leaked conversation suggests that the student had refused the lecturer’s initial sex demand to upgrade her marks and that he wanted to have sex with her five times, before the upgrade, a deal she later rejected.

Find below the audio conversation between the student and the lecturer:

Student: I was really seeing my period Professor Akindele.

Lecturer: Stop mentioning my name. And now nko?

Student: I am not on my period now.

Lecturer: Your boyfriend has done it yesterday?

Student: Is it every time that someone will be doing with the boyfriend? Is it every time you do it with your wife?

Lecturer: Yes

Student: It’s a lie, not possible. So what’s the plan now?

Lecturer: Let ’s have the first one today and then we will do another one tomorrow. Is our agreement not five times?

Student: Is it B that you want to give me or C? Why would it be five times you will knack me?

Lecturer: That’s what I will do.

Student: Prof, you know what? Let me fail it. I can’t do it five times. For what nah? No worry. Thank you, sir.

Lecturer: You are welcome.

SIR Toyin:

Thank you very much for bringing this sad but important issue to our attetion. It makes both salacious and interesting reading! However, my legendary Baba Ijebu would have asked: "Na this be a surprise?"
If one responds, "Yes, that be a surprise!" Baba Ijebu would have responded: "Na, whereya. It's done all over the place?"

Well, was it not at the former University of Ife (now OAU) that a female postgraduate student, with her first degree from Finland, accused her entire Postgraduate Examination Committee of what she described as being "sexed" so many times by the male committee members? She alleged this about the Chairman of her Postgraduate Exam Committee:: "He sexed me three times." She then alleged similarly about the other committee members and, also, even about her External Examiner from Lagos! Having previously studied in Sweden myself, I happened to know of the said Ife postgraduate female student, hence I still vividly remember her complaint. Sadly, the committee still did not pass her. Maybe, they did not "sex her" enough!

Imagine the current OAU sex-for-mark case, allegedly, about Professor Akindele! He, allegedly, wanted to have sex with the undergraduate student five times!! What a sad situation, which should be thoroughly investigated.

A.B. Assensoh.
