Court Reinstates EKSU Lecturer Sacked Over Alleged S3x Scandal

The lecturer had also sought “an order directing the defendants to publish an advertorial of apology to the claimant in at least three national newspapers in Nigeria”.

Aduwo had told the court that he was not given fair hearing before the investigative committee and all the committees of the defendants and as well alleged that the committees did not follow due process.

But EKSU, which said it followed due process with the investigative and other committees, said the lecturer did not request to cross-examine the female student or any other witness when he appeared before the panel.

The judge held that Aduwo was not given fair hearing as there was “no indication that the panel gave the claimant the opportunity to cross-examine the witnesses and he declined” as he faulted the committees, saying, “It is clear that the composition of the investigative panel fell short of the requirement of the law.”
