I believe those guys who go to the Literature section to steal stories will now begin to understand how serious Plagiarism is.
DO NOT STEAL OTHER PEOPLES WORK, IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE.

This is a good move. Plagiarism is an unpardonable 'sin'. To be honest, majority of lecturers in Nigerian Universities are involved plagiarism (especially the ones who had earned all their degrees in Nigeria, e.g BSc OOU, MSc OOU, PhD OOU).

They usually publish in local kangaroo journals (sometimes W/African journals), yet they make the loudest noise. Apologies to the 'true lecturers' reading this (I've only said majority, and not ALL).

If all that a typical Nigerian professor does is academic robbery, financial crime and sextual harrassment rather than being an authority that epitomise anything Good to humanity. How do they now have the moral ethos, academic alacrity and justification to pass moral instructions in Class, counsel yahoo yahoo guys saturating the campus, Aristo Babe and Cultist. No thanks at all to the generation of penuniary hooliganism will find ourself and the Nigerian government for moralising economic crimes through pardon. Dangote Phd driver keep it up he no easy by brother when u can employ that knowledge to criminality
