OAU sex for marks lecturer remanded in Ilesa Prison til December 17th

A Federal High Court in Osogbo has refused to grant bail to a former Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) lecturer, Professor Richard Akindele, charged with demanding sex to pass his student, Monica Osagie.  

 

Justice Maureen Onyetenu in her ruling ordered Akindele to be remanded in Ilesa Prison until December 17. Onyetenu ordered the prosecution counsel from the ICPC to produce video evidence of the lecturer and his student having fun.  

Earlier, ICPC Senior Legal Officer, Mr Kehinde Adetoye had prayed the court to deny the defendant bail on grounds that he will not appear for his trial when released. Adetoye argued that the defendant had refused to turn up  at the ICPC office in Abuja after a written agreement to honour any invitation extended to him, particularly on his return from abroad on a medical trip.
