“He threatened my grades for sex” — Lady recounts shocking ordeal with Abia State University lecturer over exam results

A former student of Abia State University has shared a disturbing account of alleged sexual harassment involving a lecturer during her 200 level.

Allegations of lecturer misconduct surface

The woman, who spoke anonymously, said the incident occurred after a departmental test when she was invited to the lecturer’s office.

According to her, the lecturer initially commended her academic performance before making inappropriate advances and linking her grades to compliance.

The revelation has sparked renewed concerns over abuse of power within tertiary institutions and the vulnerability of female students in academic environments.

“During my 200 level at Abia State University, I had a lecturer who clearly had his eyes on me. After one of his tests, almost everyone got an F or D, but I got a C. He called me, praised me, then tried to touch me. I stood up and told him I wasn’t comfortable. He asked if I didn’t want an A, and I said I would earn it the right way,” she said.

Unexpected twist raises mixed reactions

The student further alleged that after rejecting the advances, the lecturer threatened her with failure, a warning she initially dismissed.

However, when results were released, she claimed she was the only student who carried over the course.

Similar cases of alleged harassment in Nigerian universities have been reported in recent years, prompting calls for stricter accountability.

“He threatened me that I would carry over his course if I didn’t cooperate. I thought he was bluffing, but I ended up with a carryover. I cried so much that day. I had decided never to give in, but he later died in a car accident. It was tragic, but I felt relieved,” she added.
