Lecturer rapes 18-yr-old girl seeking admission into UniLag

A randy lecturer is in trouble for raping admission seeking teenager.

Rape is a serious crime

A lecturer with the University of Lagos identified as Afeez Baruwa, has landed in trouble when he could not control his rampaging libido and decided to rape an 18-year-old girl seeking admission into the school.

Baruwa reportedly raped the girl in a study room at the main campus of the university after he had promised to help her get an admission.

The naughty lecturer who has been arrested by police officers attached to the Surulere Police Division on Monday, August 3, however told the police that girl is his girlfriend and that the sex was mutual as he did not force her to have intercourse with him.

It was gathered that the lecturer is a known face to the girl's family as he and her father are landlords at Abesan Estate, Ipaja area of the state, and it was this closeness that convinced the girl's father to hand her over to him to help her secure admission.

But contrary to the cordial relationship the father thought existed between him and Baruwa, the lecturer had another need for the girl as he allegedly took the girl inside one of the study halls, bolted the door, and raped her, warning her never to tell anyone or she would not get the admission she so craved.

The girl later told her father about the rape and her parents took her to the Mirabel Center, a Non-Governmental Organisation, which decided to take up the case. A medical examination was also conducted on the teenager which showed she had been sexually violated.

One of the police officers handling the case narrated said:

“The suspect is actually a friend of the father of the girl. The girl had written the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, and she needed assistance with the post-UTME. So, the father sent her to meet and discuss with the lecturer.

But, it turned out that on July 23 when the girl visited the suspect, he raped the girl in the study room. The suspect confessed to the act, but his claim is that the sex was by mutual consent.”
