Sextape: Babcock Justifies Expulsion of Student

Vice-Chancellor of Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Prof. Ademola Tayo, has justified the action taken by the institution against the female student in the sex video that has gone viral on social media.

Speaking at Babcock Guest House on Sunday, the VC explained that, “We had to take that decision in order to protect this institution and to protect its alumni. Because anywhere they go they say the University where they are all prostitutes. If we keep mute, in the public opinion they would think that anything goes in the institution. We had to make a statement to show discipline.”

But I need to tell you that I signed it off with tears in my eyes as a responsible father. But we are not leaving this young lady to her doom. The pastor called me last week and I prayed with the family. The father called me and said pray with your daughter. I said she is still my daughter. Sometimes discipline is therapeutic. It is when you go that you realise that this is not right what I have done and then you go back to yourself.

“I look forward to a time when this young girl would graduate and be celebrated. It may not be here; I don’t know where but we are not throwing the baby out with the bath water.”

The VC also stated some stakeholders commended the university’s decision to expel the student, saying that they would have pulled their wards out of the University.

However, he said the institution was still in contact with the girl’s family and may take her back if she was repentant.
