Embattled OAU lecturer, Professor Richard Akindele, who was charged with demanding s-x to pass his student, Monica Osagie, was denied bail by a Federal High Court in Osogbo on Tuesday.
ICPC Senior Legal Officer, Mr Kehinde Adetoye had earlier asked the court to deny the defendant bail on grounds that he will not appear for his trial when released.
Newsflash247 reported that the move was backed by the defendant’s failure to show up at the ICPC office in Abuja after a written agreement to honour any invitation extended to him, particularly on his return from abroad on a medical trip.
Ruling on the case, Justice Maureen Onyetenu who ordered Akindele to be remanded in Ilesa Prison until Dec. 17, ordered the prosecution counsel from the ICPC to produce video evidence of the lecturer and his student having fun.
The OAU lecturer was first arraigned before Justice Maureen Onyetenu on Nov. 19 by the ICPC, on four counts of alteration of age and demanding s-x to pass his student.
