Professor Ibidapo-Obe made the remarks recently on the sideline of the 11th convocation ceremony of Crawford University, Igbesa, Ogun State, a faith-based private university. He said for any male lecturer to sexually harass his female students for whatever reason is uncalled for and therefore totally condemnable. “The act is terrible morally and also lowers the prestige universities are trying to attach to their products,” he stressed. Ibidapo-Obe, a professor of computer science and chairman of the governing council of Crawford University, said every university should encourage whistle blowing policy to prevent such acts in the nation’s ivory towers. Giving statistics of the graduands earlier, the vice-chancellor, Professor Isaac Rotimi Ajayi, said 32 graduated with first class honours, with Miss Gloria Adagbogun from the Department of Biological Sciences emerging as the overall best.
