Sex for mark
I remember vividly what happened back then in school,year 2010. I think I was in 500 level. The story goes thus: It was about 7pm when I got a call from an unregistered number, I picked it gleefully as it's my usual practice. The caller who I was yet to know introduced himself as one of my lecturers and asked that I should come around. I didn't hesitate, so I told my hostel mates what just transpired as I hardly go out without letting someone know my whereabout, they asked me not to go but I insisted. I lived in the hostel so it was such a short distance to the lecturer's office. In a jiffy I was with him sitting opposite him,waiting patiently so he could tell me the reason for my invitation. Instead he buried his head in the scripts he was marking. After a while he asked what is your matric number which I gave without hesitation. I saw him scouting for my exam sheet,of course he saw it,he flipped through my scripts and the following conversation ensued. Mr Lecturer: how come you failed my course like this? Me: (with a dangerous smile) Sir I can't fail your course, I have never failed a course. I have a reputation for crossing the failure line no matter how terrible the exam was (not my making just grace) Sir,if I will fail that course then I will fail with a C? Mr Lecturer: (he was awe-struck,I think my reply came as a shock) ehn! But you know I can make you score an A? Me: (tempting broad smiles) wow! That with be indeed wonderful. What are friends for? ( I have a reputation of making friends easily) Mr Lecturer: Ah! We will talk more about that tomorrow. Would you mind going on a date? ( who knows he could be a potential husband) Me: Great! A date we have. See you tomorrow at 5pm.I will make my choice of a venue and get back to you. (Next day...after telling him where to block me. It was a great outing, I ate to my fill,he bought me yahooza chicken (only futmites will understand) and even gave me extra for my friends) (While in the car) Mr Lecturer: ehn! Yesterday you said you will appreciate if I score you an A. Me: That's right Sir. (Holding tenaciously to my chicken) Mr Lecturer: you know in life nothing goes for nothing? Me: (feigning ignorance) Sir I don't usually understand parables. Pls can you say exactly what you mean? Mr Lecturer: I mean you need to rub my back as I rub yours. Me: oh! Now I understand. So what's the deal? Mr Lecturer: you sleep with me,I give you an A. Me: uhmmm! Is that all you can do? Mr Lecturer: (scratching his head) ehn... OK..I have 2 other lecturers I can talk to which makes it 3 As. Me: Impressive but not good enough. Mr Lecturer: what do you want? Me: 9 straight As(5point) if I could score a Grade point of 4.54 solely on my own then I expect more from you. Mr Lecturer: Silvia, it's not possible to convince 8 other lecturers. You're asking for too much. Me: Good! Then we have no deal.( I knew he wouldn't meet up,even if he did I had no such intention,then I was under an oath of celibacy. I wasn't so crazy about graduating with a 4 point) Me: Sir I have a plea, please if you can't add to my mark I beseech thee do not reduce it.(with a stern face) Mr Lecturer:are you threatening me? Me: no Sir, how can I threaten a Lecturer? Am just imploring you. ( meanwhile all our conversation was being recorded on my phone as back up in case he dares to play with the tail of a lion. (Dropping me off,he bade me good bye while I thanked him for the sumptuous outing) (Fast forward to when result was pasted) ........... To be continued later

This is common in most schools today, they nolonger care about ethics on morals
Some lecturers are just nothing but he goats. They are just there graduating unlearned graduates
This is quite usual in the educational system of my dear country
I don't know why a lecturer will be involve with this kind of thing
