Dr Boniface Igbeneghu: a UNILAG lecturer indicted in the BBC documentary

Some of the Nigerian celebrities have expressed their opinions to the viral sex-for-grades BBC documentary video which indicted lecturers at University of Lagos and University of Ghana.

University of Lagos (UNILAG) lecturer, Dr Boniface Igbeneghu, a former sub-dean of Faculty of Art and head pastor of local Foursquare Gospel Church was caught on camera harassing a female undercover journalist who posed as a 17-year-old student seeking admission.

However, in Ghana, Dr Paul Kwame Butako from the College of Education was the culprit discovered after female students pointed him out in series of interviews. An undercover journalist who posed as a final year student, interested in doing masters was then sent to him.

Reacting to the documentary, Don Jazzy condemned lecturers involved in the act but pointed out some female students are guilty.

“I understand that some ladies are also guilty of offering their lecturers sex for good grades but I believe this documentary will be a deterrent. If the Students know their lecturers will reject their offers, they won’t dare make an attempt,” he tweeted.
