Students of the Faculty of Law, University of Calabar, stormed the administrative bloc of the school to protest the alleged constant sexual harassment by one of the lecturers in the institution, Prof. Cyril Ndifon
Naija News reports that the students alleged sexual harassment from the dean in addition to facing threats and suppression from the institution’s authorities.
They held placards that read: ‘Enough of Law school list manipulation.’ ‘Prof Ndifon must go for our sanity.‘ ‘Law girls are not Bonaza, Prof Ndifon should stop grabbing us‘ ‘The faculty of law is not a brothel’, chanting enough is enough.
In 2015, Prof. Cyril Ndifon was suspended by the school’s Vice Chancellor, Professor Ivara Esu for sexually assaulting a 20-year-old 400-level student.
The professor’s suspension comes after the mother of the victim, Irene Akpan, in a letter sent to the university, alleged that the Prof had raped her daughter, between 3 and 5pm on August 29, 2015 at his private office on the top floor of the faculty building.
However, he was reinstated back into the institution in December, 2022
