“There was a particular topic he taught us, and we didn’t understand it. He then said he would teach me in his office. But before he started, he whispered in my ear, ‘I am going to kiss you after the teaching.’ After the exam, he told me we should meet at a hotel near Alagbon bus stop.”
A Lagos secondary school teacher, Egberongbe Adegbenga, faces multiple sexual abuse allegations after victims revealed he demanded sex for grades. Audio recordings obtained by SaharaReporters detail how he lured students, with one recalling, “He whispered, ‘I am going to kiss you after teaching.’” A whistleblower, NYSC member Clement James, exposed the abuse but faced intimidation—teachers seized his phone and locked him in a toilet.
Despite Adegbenga’s arrest and ongoing trial, school officials allegedly silenced students and smeared James. The Lagos Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency confirmed the case is active in court. The principal and vice principal declined comment, while police cited sub judice concerns. Victims demand justice amid systemic cover-up attempts.
