Waiting impatiently for the lazy and unethical lecturers, who come to class with their notes from 15 years ago meanwhile requesting that the government pay them research allowance, to be exposed. Dirty lecturers... and TAs #sexforgrades #ghana #bbc https://t.co/iHRqFV1WvL

#sexforgrades It's a necessary conversation we must have! Funny enough, it's not only happening in our universities but also in secondary schools. #SexForGrades

Under no circumstance should a lecturer give grades in exchange for sex. It is disgraceful and such people should be smoked out. #SexForGrades

#sexforgrades these stories have real life consequences for survivors and people around them. Before you lament the damage this will cause to the reputation of these lecturers, spare a thought for survivors. https://t.co/mtuV1jxZ4d

I”™m happy about this cos I have many friends who have shared with me their personal experiences with lecturers who threaten to fail them if they don”™t succumb to their sexual advances. I hope this brings justice and encourages more girls and even boys to speak out #SexForGrades https://t.co/stBTgYPVpD
