UNIZIK Condemns Assault on Lecturer Amid Alleged Attempted Sexual Misconduct

Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, has condemned the reported assault of a lecturer in its Department of Chinese Studies after allegations of attempted sexual misconduct involving a female student. Videos circulating online reportedly show the lecturer being confronted and partially stripped by students after he left his office with a student who was shouting for help. The claims in the videos have not been independently verified. The university said it is aware of the incident and has stated its position through its Information and Public Relations Directorate. Further investigation is expected to establish the facts and determine any necessary action.

Condemning assault is necessary, but the allegations should not be brushed aside simply because the confrontation became public.

UNIZIK should ensure an independent, transparent investigation and clear support channels for everyone involved.
