Covenant University has come under intense fire and public criticism after staggering revelations emerged about alleged multiple sexual romps, rape and abortion cases involving employees and students of the school.
The University alumni committee told BBC it has received the complaints earlier and was working with school management over the crisis.
The group’s executive body said while the story broke on Twitter on 21 November, 2022, it got wind of it since last week and had been working with management towards unraveling the issues and finding necessary solutions.
A student of the Ogun State based academic institution had claimed on Twitter that another female student has just fallen into coma after being allegedly impregnated by the head of student disciplinary council of the institution. The head allegedly aborted the pregnancy for her and still expelled her.
According to the student, there have been many similar cases involving other female students that have been swept under the carpet at the institution.
According to revelations on social media, the school authorities had put stringent conditions in place to restrict students movement and other social activities with violation leading to expulsion and other tough penalties.
It was revealed that some University staff including security guards and disciplinary officers allegedly took advantage of this to blackmail female students for s*x out of fear of expulsion or other penalties.
Nigerians have expressed outrage on social media following the bizarre revelations condemning such behaviours and attacking the school for failing in its responsibilities.
Meanwhile, the Ogun State Police Authorities said it has not been officially informed.
