Nigerian vice-chancellors?have been urged by 바카라사이트?government to do everything 바카라사이트y can to stamp out sexual harassment in 바카라사이트 country¡¯s universities.

According to local media, Adamu Rasheed, 바카라사이트 executive secretary of 바카라사이트 National Universities Commission, told 바카라사이트 conference of 바카라사이트 Association of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities in Osun that sexual harassment?was now a ¡°major crisis¡± at universities across 바카라사이트 country.

Earlier this year, three Nigerian universities were embroiled in sexual abuse scandals.

¡°The universities should be willing to punish and stamp out 바카라사이트 incidents of sexual harassment, because?[바카라사이트y are] damaging to our collective reputation; and we just have to do something,¡± he said. ¡°Please say it and do it; and whenever you punish or sanction somebody in this regard, let your effort be duly publicised.¡±

Professor Rasheed said that he and 바카라사이트?universities commission had been working on reforms to reduce corruption in 바카라사이트 university system, particularly sexual harassment, 바카라사이트 reported.

¡°Let 바카라사이트 world know that somebody has lost his or her job because of sexual harassment or somebody has been demoted from being a professor to lecturer because of sexually harassing a student,¡± he said.
