Indecent dressing not an excuse for harassment, says NANS president

Dayo Ojerinde spoke with the President of the National Association of Nigerian Students,  Aruna Kadiri, on the sex scandals rocking some universities

What is the position of NANS on students who beg lecturers for marks?

It is not wrong to beg for marks. But for lecturers, there are rules and regulations guiding their profession. If it is right, then they should give to whoever is begging for marks. If it is wrong, they should send them out of their offices

To be honest, there is little or nothing we can do as NANS. We can’t ask students not to plead for marks, but the lecturers should follow the rules. But it becomes wrong when the lecturer accepts money. If this is found out, then the students and the lecturer should go. We will not support that. 

Some people have said that indecent dressing leads to sexual harassment. What is your opinion on this?
