Prof Akindele

A Federal High Court in Osun on Monday, Sentenced a former Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)Lecturer , Richard Akindele, to two years  in prison for demanding sex-for-marks from a student, Monica Osagie.

Justice Maureen Onyekenu, gave the order after Akindele changed his plea ,  from not guilty to guilty.

The trial judge ordered that the lecturer serves his sentence in Ilesa prison, due to the magnitude of the offence he committed “which is prevalent in the country”.

Onyekenu had earlier rejected a suspended sentence and plea bargain which the Defendant’s counsel , Mr Francis Omotosho , had pleaded  for, noting that suspended sentence and plea bargain should be premised on public interest.

She decried the gravity of the offence  the convict committed , adding that someone must be used “as a scape goat without letting the issue of sexual harrasment in tertary institutions continue like that.

The Defence Counsel, Mr Francis Omotosho, had earlier pleaded with the court to temper justice with mercy in sentencing his client.

News Agency of Nigeria reports that the lecturer was first arraigned before Justice Maureen Onyetenu on Nov. 19 by the ICPC on four counts of alteration of age and demanding sex to pass his student .
