Woman who analysed UNIZIK video gives verdict
On her Facebook page, Engr Roberta Edu shared why she faulted the lecturer.
Her post read:
“Now that the noise of the Unizik lecturer vs. student incident has slowed down, let me add my two cents.I have reviewed the videos, read the takes, and analyzed everything from the incident.
“My verdict is that the lecturer was wrong. The lecturer doesn’t come across as a bad and arrogant person, but he is just someone who lacks emotional intelligence. I can figure that it comes from a place of his disdain for children who record videos or have an active social media presence.
“That was what took his senses away and left him displaying all the drama that has led to them interviews in the same social media he doesn’t like. I put it to you that if that girl was standing gisting with a friend, playing, or doing anything else, the lecturer would never have put a hand on her while saying, “excuse me.”
Advising the lecturer, Roberta added:
“Those clamoring for the girl to be penalized are just being typical Nigerians, where everyone believes that a child has no rights and an adult has the right to do things anyhow.
“The lecturer should undergo a program on emotional intelligence. He must have had the academic qualifications to become a lecturer, but he certainly doesn’t have the emotional intelligence and character expected of his office.”
Another lady also shared her observations while blaming the lecturer for touching the girl.
