#SexForMarks: Nigerians Reacts As BBC Exposes Another Lecturer Demanding Sex For Mark

Naija News has earlier reported that a former Nigerian university lecturer, Boniface Igbeneghu, was caught on camera requesting sexual demands in exchange for admission into the University of Lagos.

The accused lecturer, Boniface Igbeneghu, was said to be a former sub-dean of the Faculty of Art and head pastor of a local Foursquare Gospel Church.

This is not the first time such incidence is happening.

Recall almost a year ago, a lecturer in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife, Dr Richard Akindele was sacked, and subsequently sentenced to two years in jail; after a tape where he was demanding for sex for marks from a student was exposed.

Also, In Lagos State University (LASU), three academic staff were dismissed for sexual harassment and misconduct.

Meanwhile, Nigerians have taken to Twitter to react to the development.

“ if you disobey me I’ll tell your mom you disobeyed me “ this right here is the power teachers , lecturers have over most students … parents see teachers as gods and don’t believe what their children say. Not all parents but most have influenced #sexforgrades

To those who are quick to defend Pastors even when the truth is Glaring, Dr Boniface was a Senior Pastor boasting of Harrasing 17 year old girls. The nigga even prayed for the girl to give her life to Christ before kicking off his evil. #SexForGrades
