Management of the University of Benin, Edo State, has set up a committee to
investigate allegations of sexual harassment against a Professor in the
Department of Philosophy.
A circular issued by the investigation committee’s Secretary, B. D. Jonathan,
said, although the professor’s name was not disclosed, the committee urged
members of staff and students with relevant information or who have
experienced any related incidents to come forward and share it.
This is coming after the institution took the decision after an unnamed
female graduate of the university called out the lecturer on social media,
while, the university alumnus also alleged that she suffered untold sexual
harassment from the said professor during her undergraduate studies.
