The Centre for Gender, an organ of the University wrote the letter of complaint on behalf of the lady. So, the Centre was the complaint and members of the Centre were also invited by the University Investigative Panel as witnesses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI appeared once before the Investigative Panel and also once before the Joint Senate and Council Disciplinary Panel which was the trial proper.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been in the department since 2006, 15 years ago \u2013 and no previous case of harassment against me. I have not also received a query at all since I started my career.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mosobolaje also explained that he was dismissed despite the alleged absence of evidence of sexual harassment against him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe decision is a violation of my fundamental rights as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and therefore a travesty of justice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust an instance, the report of the Joint Senate and Council Disciplinary Panel submitted that there was no evidence of harassment in the audio being the charge against me but went ahead to find me guilty on an account that I was not charged (lecturer-student relationship) which is not included in the list of misconduct in the University Code of Conduct,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The English lecturer said the panel did not tell him the claims and evidence made against him by the said student, adding that the transcript of the conversation with the complainant on the telephone was not also made available to him.<\/p>\n<p>Another complaint made was that in the report of the Joint Senate and Council Panel, the student reportedly submitted that the interaction between her and the lecturer did not affect her grades.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cMy accuser did not appear before the Investigative Panel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Panel took evidence from her via a phone conversation. The lawyer on the Panel rejected the move as being inadmissible in law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Panel did not tell me what my accuser levelled against me. The Panel did not know the accuser nor the person speaking at the other end of the call.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMore than the above. My accuser did not appear before the trial proper. So, there was no cross-examination.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lecturer at the Department of English Language Obafemi Awolowo University, Dr Adebayo Mosobalaje, has claimed that he was \u201cwrongly\u201d dismissed by the university management for alleged sexual assault.
