A professor in the department of Accounting at the Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU, Richard Akindele, has been accused by a female student of demanding to sleep with her before upgrading her mark to an E.
In a leaked audio posted on social media, it was gathered that the student scored 33 in the course, but was promised an upgrade as long as she put her back on the ground for the lecturer to climb.
In the audio recording, a man purported to be Prof Akindele was heard telling the lady that he would sleep with her five different times for the mark to be upgraded to a pass.
However, this request was rejected by the student, who said she cannot be allowed to be ‘pounced on’ five times just because of a mark not up to a B.
Before then, the man was heard advising the lady to retake the course next year if she was not ready to play along.
Even when the student called the name, Professor Richard Akindele, during the conversation, the man on the other side of the phone rebuked her saying ‘stop mentioning my name.’
However, Aproko247 could not independently verified authenticity of the conversation though it is trending on social media.
