A bill to that effect titled: "Sexual Harassment in Tertiary Institutions Bill 2016 ", co-sponsored by the senators, passed first reading in the senate yesterday.
The bill was sponsored by Senator Ovie Omo- Agege with 45 others.
It seeks for enactment of an Act to Make Provisions for the Prohibition of Sexual Harassment of Students by Educators in Tertiary Educational Institutions in Nigeria and for Matters Connected Therewith, 2016.
Omo-Agege briefed newsmen after the passage of the bill to second reading. He disclosed that the major intension of the bill, was to restore morality, discipline and sanity between male educators and female students in higher institutions in the country.
He explained that the bill when passed, would serve as the needed legal framework of domesticating the honour code existing between lecturers and students in tertiary institutions in United States of America into our own penal code here.
