The bill will be challenged in the court of law and it will fail. Because it's discriminatory. 5-14 years jail term Vs mere expulsion? Mba...

Citizenshelm:
The Senate on Wednesday debated the sexual harassment bill initiated by Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo-Agege.

The bill scaled second reading on the floor of the Senate.

The proposed legislation titled “A bill for an Act to Prevent, Prohibit and Redress Sexual Harassment of Students in Tertiary Educational Institutions and for other matters connected therewith 2019” has 27 clauses.

The bill proposes up to 14 years jail term, with a minimum of 5 years, without an option of fine for any educator who commits sexual offences in tertiary institutions, Igbere TV reports.

The bill defines sexual offences as including sexual intercourse with a student or demands for sex from a student or a prospective student or intimidating or creating a hostile or offensive environment for the student by soliciting for sex or making sexual advances.

Other forms of sexual harassment identified in the bill are grabbing, hugging, kissing, rubbing, stroking, touching, pinching the breasts or hair or lips or hips or buttocks or any other sensual part of the body of a student; or sending by hand or courier or electronic or any other means naked or sexually explicit pictures or videos or sex-related objects to a student, and whistling or winking at a student or screaming, exclaiming, joking or making sexually complimentary or uncomplimentary remarks about a student’s physique or stalking a student.

Senator Omo-Agege, in his lead debate, said: “The most effective way to deal with the offence of sexual harassment in our tertiary institutions is to penalise the very impropriety of the act, with or without consent.”

According to him, sexual harassment must be defined in tertiary educational institutions as statutory rape with strict liability for offenders to be prosecuted easily.

On the extension of the bill to primary, secondary schools, worship centres and workplace, Omo-Agege said doing so will not be necessary because the Criminal and Penal codes already adequately deal with these categories with sufficient clarity.

He, however, stressed that the bill prescribes expulsion for students who falsely accuse educators of sexual harassment.

He said: “An educator whose character is maligned is at liberty to sue for defamation under the law of defamation which is well-settled in our jurisprudence and needs no duplication in this bill.”

The Senate also on Wednesday considered President Muhammadu Buhari’s Finance Bill, 2019 initiated by Senate Leader, Abdullahi Yahaya.

Senator Abdullahi said the bill essentially seeks to promote fiscal equity by mitigating instances of regressive taxation; reforming domestic laws to align with global best practices, and introducing tax incentives for investments in infrastructure and capital markets.

L

. A similar bill DIED in the 8 senate during a public hearing because it was limited to higher institutions .The senate then believed sexual harassment affects every sector in Nigeria I believe a bill like this should be entitled: Sexual harassment in the private and public sectors. or Sexual harassment in Nigeria.

The bill is discriminatory against educators in tertiary institutions.

Laws against sexual harassment should not be restricted to a particular group.

A reported case of sexual harassment should be handled by the authorities of the tertiary institution or the police/courts under the already existing laws (that are applicable to everybody).

The bill should be thrown out or challenged in court.
