yes I did.
I begin to ponder on issues that contradicts God to be all loving and all powerful, and I knew he is not what they say he is

Don't mind them. Gd practically destroyed the early humans slash angels when they had become powerful men and women.

Gd wiped humanity out with flood save for Noah and his ark.

Gd burnt the former city of Abraham.

Most of those folks calling Gd what written history and actions say Gd wasn't are just delusional and forcing their delusions to be reality when in fact, Gd "never" changes.

When someone takes your picture or video without your consent, do you know it's illegal and the person may end up in jail?

Since it's tiktok, it will not take her minutes to upload it and you will see the headlines.
A simple, oh, I'm sorry, let me delete it would have solved this problem. That is why people are angry.
Look what that has caused her.

She didn't take the lecturer's video. She was taking a video in a public place, and a lecturer walked behind her, tapping her, she felt disrespected and spoke, the lecturer came back asking her video to be deleted.

Her video to be deleted could be like a policeman coercing a civilian to delete their videos....
That apart in short.


Even if she actually did point her camera at him specifically, under no circumstance does anyone say a video be deleted, ever (unless actually mandated by a court order, which I even doubt). The correct approach would have been the lecturer to ask her to crop his part out or edit it. And to make it worse, he was using threat of "he's a lecturer" on the lady.

And to further it, dragging the lady's phone with her.

Like someone said, it's similar to how people complain that police and efcc forcefully demand for their phones, but somehow, here, the lecturer's action is correct to them.

He has a lot of crimes with his actions actually. And should there be a lawsuit with a proper lawyer, he'd be in for a long thing, because his actions, which he even confidently made statements for is, according to laws, very unlawful.

otipoju:
You write all this big big English and you are just vomiting nonsense.

The lecturer demanded that she delete a video that he was in. A Simple okay and delete will have saved her from.wasting three academic sessions.

If we did not watch the video of what happened your likes will call evil good.

Ok.

Later, "the man should not have abused his position and demanded destruction of some else's creative endeavor and IP" would sooner or later rub all on your evil faces.

He looks Russian.

Komu1048:
Please sue the university or raise go fund for her to get a good lawyer. I'm sure she will reward you handsomely. If not u r just blabbing

Oh my, what a great idea you have. You should proud of yourself. And now that you've mentioned this, you should then raise the funds and start the campaign. Otherwise, you're just a spineless sizzle. ...what does sizzle even mean?

Otherwise, you're valueless.

intellectual what, when she invade the man privacy by taking a shoot without his consent, the man fit sue her,say na for assassination purpose she video him, lastly ,how can you justify a gal doing tiktok on a walk way, is unizik for tiktok or learning centre, her refusal to get hold of that phone is because of her privacy invasion and that's only evidence the man got hold, if he had left without the phone,the gal will delete the video and this man have no evidence and no one can even take her serious, even most court can't take witness of the incident serious, seriously if he had not got hold of that phone we would have seen the part of the story the man wanted us to see as to be defender, we Nigerians are not biase or corrupt, we judge with evidence what we see and the video shows it all, from her bitting him to strangling his neck to kill the man plus his cloth been teared, do take it so or go and be her defending council and defend evil

"She invaded the man privacy". You didn't watch the video or you're trying to misinterpret what is clear.

To help you. She placed her phone to a window and was recording video. The man then walked into the video. The man could walk into it because she hadn't taken approval to use the hallway exclusively for her video production. So, the man has a privilege to ask to be EDITED out, not that her video DELETED, and threatening with that he's a lecturer to do so.

No, eventually, the lecturer didn't "left" with the video, after trying to unlawfully take possession of her phone without no police or court order, he then ended up destroying her phone, her property in the incidence.

Help yourself and stop calling "evil" good, and "good" evil.

You're really expert at calling black red, and red black. Really expert at misinterpreting. Go help yourself.

emperor4love:
if that man was your father or brother how will you feel, with his composure and calmness, I know you wil call him weakling or simp when he must be back , a mam old enough to be her father, I even heard she was trying to play justice by allegation of saying the mam touch her breast and inappropriate , go facebook and see people who have been talking good about this man, I mean unizik passed set, so if he was a bad man with moral decadence or like other lecturer do, will people testify good about him

That on facebook, his account is flooded with that he's a good man. Personally, on a eye-witness account, in the school then, I had rather mistakenly witnessed (either rape or sexual relationship for grade with a lady) in the office of one our lecturers. He was a very "good" man, "we" all love him, and I still speak with him till today. So, that "we" all have good things to say about a lecturer doesn't mean they are incapable of being called abusive.

"We" all love our lecturers to the extent at which they do not act unjustly against us. I loved my lecturers, I still communicate with about 5 of them. I had the key to one of my lecturers' office then, slept in the office, and you could say that we shared the same office, and I was an undergrad. (Although, my case wasn't the only one, atleast half of the lecturers in the dept have their unofficial teaching assistants, myself and others). But should a person claim either of them acted unjustly, I'm not going to be the vehement justifier of the lecturer and criticize the other person without at least empathizing with them.


Everyone just goes on barrage of insults and strong condemnation against the lady, when the lecturer isn't completely innocent. That is unfairness on the lady!

vislabraye:
Slapping the lecturer and tearing is clothes is self defense ? You are a shameful person. WHy should she make a tik tok video on a busy hallway during school hours and expect not to be interrupted ? In case you don't know, there are some places where you shouldn't make videos.
Shame on your level of thinking.

Really? Busy hallway? There's video evidence that the hallway wasn't busy, and the school didn't outlaw recording video in any of its publicly available facilities.

You are shameful person? You're a lawless person and you're justifying the abuse of the lecturer.

And the lady, inasmuch recording video is hallway isn't prohibited, she is correct to make her tiktok videos, build her creativity and intellectual capacity to creativity now (theatre arts, right?), and also engage in entrepreneurial endeavor that isn't prohibited by the institution. Making Tiktok videos, a lady once claimed she makes more that $40,000 per month from it.

So, the abusive lecturer tells her to destroy her intellectual property that she worked hard for, under threat using 'hes a lecturer' and destroy her entrepreneurial spirit, and especially when universities encourage creativity and entrepreneurship.

All of you extremely opposing the lady, are the types that'd tell a person to turn their left cheeks when slapped at the right, but would hardly take such themselves.

Tell a movie producer to delete their videos, threaten them to, and not get sued with heavy penalty.

Arrant people with cavemen non forward looking perspective. Some are even saying in their days in university. Arrant!

Lovit:
Stop writing rubbish, you can go and join her in observing the expulsion

Is the lecture corridor a place to make tik tok videos during lecture hours?

Na becuase of people like una all these gen Zs no dey get sense. Defender of the universe!

Did the school say recording video in public parts of its facilities is outlawed?

Since you know where and where not people should make video when the law didn't ban it, perhaps you too would explain yourself in court the reason someone else's intellectual property (do you have any idea how long to make a proper video recording, and are you aware that people are making monies from tiktok? A lady once said she makes about $40,000 a month via Tiktok videos.) Does the school prohibit students engagement in creative endeavors or trying to be entrepreneurial?

If the lady ever goes to a court with a proper lawyer (the court loves law, not sentiments or your ignorant to law judgments), she'd be justified.

Discountsempai:


I have been reading your long story, and I am laughing

This is a university. People are there to get their degree, and the lecturers and uni staff are regarded as being in loco parentis.

It is not fair, but then again, there are reasons why a student attacking a teacher is considered wrong...if the student was let off, it would lead to disresepect of lecturers.

Now, some lecturers are proud and some deserve student's disrespect...but if disrespect becomes a widespread thing, students won't learn, and the whole purpose of going to uni would be defeated.

In life, a lot of things are not fair. It is illegal to fight back against a policeman, even if he is beating you up, because unfortunately if the law criminalizing assault against policemen was removed, anarchy would result, and the bad guys will take action.

The girl has forgotten why she is in school. To learn character, not just book. To learn that tomorrow, when you are working , and some customer comes in to abuse you, you hold your cool, and be polite. And use the offical means to get redress...(in the university, it is the dean of student affairs). TO learn that there is hierarchy in this world. (right now, my immediate superior is someone who is younger than me, both in age and in time working here. I still call him sir. ..BECAUSE...that is the way of the world. Na my oga, not my MATE. Logically it is not fair, but if we started doing anyhow, our organisation won't get any work done!).

Simple adivce if you are in university....keep your head down, your mouth shut, and graduate. Don't drag things with any lecturer. You may learn patience and coolness under adversity. You may learn not to let people's actions affect your mind too much...because if that girl had not opened her big mouth to say 'WHO IS HE'...she would still be in school.

Actually, I do not up to 50% agree with the lady, but like you said, life is unfair, that is known. However, how everyone is strongly criticizing the lady without atleast euphemistically criticizing the lecturer's using his lecturer-ness to coerce the lady in a heated manner is what I see and not wanting to un-see. And for that, I have don the defence of the lady against the many offences against her.

The lecturer, I would say, should have as well communicated better with the lady. He has that duty if he was a well-trained teacher.


Someone commented that the lecturer, on facebook, is flooded with that he's a good man. Personally, on a eye-witness account, in the school then, I had rather mistakenly witnessed (either rape or sexual relationship for grade with a lady) in the office of one our lecturers. He was a very "good" man, "we" all love him, and I still speak with him till today. So, that "we" all have good things to say about a lecturer doesn't mean they are incapable of being called abusive.

3kay945:
Are you at defence of the girls' act or what?

In essence, I defend none. But the statement of the university shows they were bias and perverted justice (wherein they also have the duty to protect their student). They should also publicly condemn the lecturer in his offences, though they could be euphemistic. And to equate their bias, if the lady wants fairness, she has a case, and that'd be such fairness.

I detect injustices or unfairness, and especially to rather vulnerable people.

themanderon:
Two wrongs do not make a right. If the Lecturer pushed her as she claimed which is a lie from the video we saw there are better ways of addressing the issue. She reacted with insolence. As the man returned and demanded she deleted the video showing his face knowing he is a man that has authority over her as her teacher she should have simply abliged his request to avoid trouble but nay as is the case with this present generation of youths they must prove stubborn and now she has gotten the reward of stubbornness and ill behavior.
Wisdom is profitable to direct and as I always tell people it's not every battle that you are justified to fight that you should fight. At times it's better to walk away and avoid unforseen circumstances.

I agree, it is not every battle to fight. I say it was largely communication issues between both parties. While the lecturer demanded video being deleted, if the video was important to her and not wanting it deleted, she could have told him she'd edit it, and if not , actually deleted it. There's no reason to pick fights when there's no need.

However, as the situation has come to this, based on my experience with cases of abuse and getting court justices for damages, if I was her lawyer, I'm not a lawyer, I'd put the below.

Cases of abuse:
1. Tapped her to shove her aside (let's assume this is excuseable)
2. Demanding that her intellectual property (her recorded video) be deleted
3. Abusing his office of being a lecturer to demand the no. (2).
4. Forcefully taking possession of the lady's property (her phone) without any police or court order.
// In which the lady reacted by defending/fighting him.
5. Clutching the lady's wrists and with the intent to cause the physical danger of breaking her wrists.


The lady's only offence : defending herself from people like the lecturer who ride on the sentiments of others and abuse their office of being lecturer to act unjustly against students who are largely humans, and also lawful residents of Nigeria.

So, you were saying?

I fear for the lady, and I wish her the best in navigating the world.

Edited:
You do know that shoving people aside is actually what lead to deaths in stampedes and crowded areas. People need to stop shoving people and let the party see you, and actually pave way while you say the "excuse me", not shove people, disorderliness.

Afrobasic:
Why are you people like this?

Assaulting a member of staff is grounds for refusal of service in any organisation in any part of the world.

The uni has just done the same thing, she assaulted a member of staff and she has been refused any further service.

Why must you be a contrarian?

Saying yes, she assaulted the lecturer. The lecturer also quite assaulted her, abused her and coerced her unlawfully. What is the organization doing about that? They were public about the humiliation of this lady? What are they going to do about their staff?


That's besides, your statement is incorrect. A student and a lecturer are called "members of the institution", there's no staff - client. Just that one has more hierarchy than the other.

SUPERPACK:
The expulsion was not only because of the assault on the lecturer but the fact that the lady was unapologetic to her action. Even when students were telling her that the man he was heating is a lecturer she refused to let go of him. She even stood her ground because her mum was also a senior lecturer in the school.

It's left for her to appeal the school senate judgement and seek for a suspension or drop a session as punishment.

But regardless her stay in that school is a danger, all lecturers will not hunt her by all means because this is a fight against all.

I will voluntarily drop out than stay back.

Well, it appears you have great points.

I'd dispute this though:

Even when students were telling her that the man he was heating is a lecturer she refused to let go of him.

The lecturer held her hands as she continued to fight him to let go of her. And the lecturer also made statement that he held her two hands, he claimed, to prevent her from leaving.

Sharpsharp00123:
so if the lecturer were her father, will she do that?

Do u slap your father at home?

Exactly what I'm saying. Just like the politicians are older than some people's father. If their father steals at home, is that how they'd publicly report the father to 'efcc' and ensure their father rots in jail?

Exactly what I'm saying. Just like the young man lecturer is somebody's father at home, the politicians are some people's fathers at home, let them be.

The society is representative of the majority of the people in it --- all the people strongly condemning the lady and strongly justifying the lecturer, except some great leaders show up. But thinking about it, which person would want to be so extremely helpful to an evil nation anymore, when social media has exposed the majority?

SUPERPACK:
Is the ladys reaction justified?

It is not entirely justified, but as she said, she was under duress with someone coercing her to act against her wish in a heated manner.

Condemning the acts of the lecturer would have been better and disciplining the lady for assault, not this public statement..

BABANGBALI:
abeg stfu. Woman wrapper.

Example of misogynists that the society should purge itself of. So, you didn't see the lady as a human being first, but a woman hence calling me woman wrapper.

I fear for you. And I wish the lady would be surrounded by sane people going forward, not some lecturer that wouldn't think twice to push her aside.

BloomingDale:
The way Nigerian men hate Nigerian women, Nigerian women should be careful out there and watch their backs.

Evidently, their decision was influenced by sentiments, not lack of bias. And that she's a lady only compounded the expectation of the misogynists that women should be docile and "yes yes" to any abuse or disrespect from men.

It's a terrible society, and one is better to often to be sure to always get justice before acting correctly against abuses or illegalities.

Expelling the lady? Trying to say that the lecturer's behavior is justified. I mean, how would Nigeria not have politicians flexing powers on their electorates.

What a perversion of justice on the abused lady.

Cases of abuse:
1. Tapped her to shove her aside (let's assume this is excuseable)
2. Demanding that her intellectual property (her recorded video) be deleted
3. Abusing his office of being a lecturer to demand the no. (2).
4. Forcefully taking possession of the lady's property (her phone) without any police or court order.

5. Clutching the lady's wrists and with the intent to cause the physical danger of breaking her wrists.


The lady's only offence : defending herself from people like the lecturer who ride on the sentiments of others and abuse their office of being lecturer to act unjustly against students who are largely humans, and also lawful residents of Nigeria.

Added again:
Threatening the lady with that she should delete her tiktok video means:
1). The lecturer was telling her to destroy her creativity and intellectual property (and that's theater arts, right?)
2). A lady once claimed she makes about $40,000 per month on tiktok. The lecturer threatens her to delete the video, trying to destroy her entrepreneurial spirit, when the institution never outlawed the recording of videos in its publicly available facilities as that hallway.

Schools promote creativity and entrepreneurship. The lecturer single-handedly destroyed that in the young lady by threatening her to delete (not even edit his part), and the action of the university sets precedence for other students that their creativity and entrepreneurship can be destroyed by the ego of an abusive lecturer.
School is no longer a promoter of self-development in students, but an avenue for lecturers to do whatever they want, by the action of that institution. But luckily, not all universities are like that.

pharmagba:
Remember he also killed Gaddafi

And when Jonathan wanted to buy arms from the US to deal with the urgent Boko Haram that even the "entire world" was chanting "Bring Back Our Girls" for, the same Obama declined to sell arms to Nigeria.

While terrorism stems from Islam, especially regarding West Africa, the West are the ones fueling it to perpetually destabilize the country for their very very many devilish purposes.

Boy what? Electricity and telecommunication have become like water, one can hardly do without them.

IamAsiri:
A knife on a faculty corridor? Why don't you clap for yourself after tendering this cringe-worthy excuse in court? And why didn't she punch him immediately he tapped her back? That might have made your postulation not sound foolish before a judge.

"A knife on a faculty corridor".

You must be imbecilic. You know, people are checked to not carry harmful objects before entry into your faculty corridor. Or an assailant, a potential criminal would be asking "is it ok to take knife to faculty corridor?", "is it ok to go kidnap chibok girls while in school?". You're imbecilic.

lexy2014:
how does all you said prove that the lecturer had "lordish-I'm-a-lecturer-motive"?

how did the lecturer "intentionally show up" in her video?

do you have any evidence to prove that the lecturer knew that the student was doing a video?

how is tapping someone from the back automatically an indication that the person tapping has a knife?

if a person tapping from the back has a knife, why will the person tap to get your attention and not just use the knife on you without tapping?

what is the essence of tapping from the front when the person is already in your front?

if the space was narrow according to you, why then cant he tap her so she could make more space since the area is an access way?

On tapping:
a person would tap, hold your shoulder then stab.

For a right-handed person, tap the shoulder with the left-hand, hold it down, and stab with the right-hand to have maximum effect.

Moving to stab from the back without holding down the shoulder, the victim may be able to turn back most easily and e.g. punch the assailant or easily remove whatever knife and potentially stab back.


tl;dr
If verdict is to be equitably made, they are both guilty of some things, the lady is more justified I'd say, and the lady could be recommended for therapy; and the lecturer counseled on healthy student-lecturer relationship.

DataDoc:
She should have come at night to do her content creation.

The other day, I was upset when some of my students were doing a video and added me in without my consent. I only calmed down when they assured me they would edit me out before posting.

She didn't respect the man's rights ab initio.
He must even be commended for exhibiting a high level of self control

The lady was supposed to edit his part out actually. Although, didn't have to delete the entire video as the lecturer had demanded.

The issue was communication between both of them. They were both furious/angry, or the lady was already angry as a result of his tap she called rude, and violated the lecturer's privacy somewhat.

IamtheTruth1:
To slap u dey hungry me o. So if someone behaves like that to your Father, is this nonsense you will say like we don't video evidence.

This is too heavy for me to say, but you must be brainless and a fool at that. You could be hungry to slap, but you'd lose your face for it. Retard!

lexy2014:
how were you able to surmise your surmise?

Take a look at the picture where he was trying to tap the lady, and check the angle he was standing at. Which shows there is still ample space for him to pass by. A polite non-lordish person would have passed that space and [s]told the lady from the side or at the front to contain the space she's occupying for passage of others.[/s] ./edited/ A polite non-lordish person would have utilized the very large space behind the lady to pass by and not intentionally bump into her, her video, start demanding her video to be deleted, forcefully taking her phone, and also holding her hands extremely tightly and not letting go despite intervention from other students. What, wants to break the lady's wrist?/edited/

Summarily, the man had enough space to pass by, while still narrow. But no, he intentionally showed up in her video and then demanding the video to be deleted. And then forcefully trying to take her phone from her.


Personally, for me, you tap me from the back? You could be holding a knife. I most likely would have punched you in the face and then checked if you were not holding a knife. You tap from the front or you call out.

Self-defence. She's security-conscious. If the lecturer had no sinister motive, he could have approached from the front, not from the rear.

Ok, watched the video. This is messy. She's an aggressive lady who may have had 'history'. And read the lecturer's account: she didn't reflex-react as a result of the tap from the rear, but from further altercations they had.

The lecturer's offence: showing up on her video, and tapping her whilst the passageway is wide enough that he could pass by. He had "lordish-I'm-a-lecturer-motive", I could surmise.
The lady's offence: assault, and that's a tenderable case. 😞

While Europeans are devils for their actions in Africa, obviously, they are cultured, understand and apply diplomacy as it is commonsensical.

America is anti-South Africa and picking on South Africa for rather meaningless pettiness. America/Americans are reckless.

It's like you are a newbie here? if not you will do well to avoid Kobo junkie argues off point and alway adamant and rigid!!

Yah! Actually, I had been seeing the moniker's posts, I only decided to respond in case some other person (not him) holds similar stance. This is a public forum, you know, and data could be accessed by anyone.

Kobojunkie:
The same Mercy Okafor whom you claim should have anticipated the attack on her person, to begin with? You lot are really pathetic! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

What next? Poison victims should also anticipate the poisoning of their food when next they go to eat with their neighbors or friends. Nonsense! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Are you a human person or a bot programmed to always be antagonist of common sense?

It should be the latter. And if it's the former, get well soon.

Kobojunkie:
Reason it yourself! In what world would someone anticipate a brutal assault for merely submitting a resignation letter because he/she is sick and tired of being paid peanuts? This is were most of the problem in that country comes from... from those of you always too quick to make excuses/accomodations for the most stewpid of things. Why are you folks so disingenuous abeg!

In what world would someone anticipate...

I would answer your rhetoric: this present world where Mercy Okafor was battered and many cases previously.

This is reality of the world, ok? No one is justifying anything. And also, a point of note, even if a person wants to fight off wrong, evils, injustices, etcetera, one must first acknowledge its presence.

So, perhaps you're living under a rock or you're a monk in Tibetan, to let you get clarity, this is what happens in the world. Your complaining or whining doesn't change it. Demand for justice or actions towards justice could change it though, but you, you must acknowledge its presence first and realize no one is accommodating anything, but picking their battles wisely.
