Godswill Akpabio, former governor of Akwa Ibom state and senate minority leader, has lamented the moral decadence in Nigerian tertiary institutions.
Speaking on Tuesday during the screening of Isaac Adewole, the ministerial nominee from Osun state, Akpabio said members of the upper legislative chamber are worried by the Sex-for-marks syndrome. He said;
“This issue is very disturbing. In The Nigerian universities today, many female students don’t go to class because they know that they will sort, Most of the senators here send their female children abroad so that the lecturers will not ask them for Sex in favour of marks. If you end up as a minister or even as a member of the federal executive council, how will you advise the federal government to address the issue of ‘national sorting’? It’s a very serious issue.”
It seems like there's no answer to that question because the syndrome has spread to a point of no return. We ask the government to provide a lasting solution to this syndrome as Nigerian Students are tired of it.
