The 13 accused lecturers were found guilty of sexual harrassment and extortion of students. Another 16 were demoted instead for what appears to be 'lesser' forms of these offences.

The school's Public Relations Officer (PRO), Mr Mustapha Oshiobugie, said on Wednesday the 12th that the affected lecturers have been officially notified.

He said:

“A total of 41 persons were involved in sexual harassment and extortion of money.

Five lecturers were dismissed, eight got their appointments terminated and 16 were demoted.

Four others were warned, two advised, two cautioned, one recommended for mentoring while two students were denied further admission in the institution."

On the validity of these accusations, he said:

“Painstaking investigations have been done by internal and independent panels constituted by the National Board for Technical Education and Ministry of Education."

The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, gave a thumbs up to the actions of the panel, according to the PRO.
