Dr Muhammed Idiagbon, a former Head of English Department, University of Ilorin, who was accused of sexually harassing a female student of the school, says his co-workers who are jealous of his sucess are behind his ordeal.
Speaking to Punch News Idiagbon, who said this in a text message on Thursday, promised to give a detailed account of what happened in a press conference.
He said, “The allegation is harassment and not rape. It is a conspiracy; a set-up by my colleagues over my rise to stardom. I will address the media at the appropriate time.”
Meanwhile, the management of the university has promised that justice will be done in the case.
A statement on Thursday by the UNILORIN’s Deputy Director, Corporate Affairs, Mr. Kunle Akogun, said the matter was receiving serious attention from the authorities.
According to the statement, the school management had directed the dean of the faculty where the incident allegedly occurred to conduct proper investigation into the case.
It added that the faculty had concluded its investigation and submitted a report to the university’s disciplinary committee.
It said the report of the committee would soon be released, assuring all parties concerned that justice would be done.
