The wife of OAU lecturer, Professor Richard Akindele the male voice in the leaked sex-for-mark audio which emanated from Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife on Monday, has denied the allegations against him, saying the devil is out to tarnish her husband’s reputation.
The professor who is a clergyman at the Anglican Diocese of Ife, Osun State, was caught in a recorded phone conversation, demanding five rounds of sex from a female student before she can pass his course.
PremiumTimes had a chat with some of his church members who expressed shock at the development. One of the church members said they went to the professor’s house immediately the news broke on social media and met his wife who blamed the devil.
”When we heard the news, some of us were surprised. We were at his house very early this (Tuesday) morning but only met his wife who said the devil is at work to soil the name of her husband,” he said
A cleric in the church who simply identified himself as Reverend Adeola said:
“Although, the voice I heard is that of Reverend Akindele, I doubt he can do that. I’m not in best position to speak. But what I can say for free is that I know him to be a man of God, generous and easy going.”
Another church member said there will be no need for a computer test on the leaked audio as the voice is definitely that of the professor.
”There is no need for any computer to test the voice. The voice in the leaked audio is exactly that of Reverend Richard Akindele. However, the man is too gentle for such act. The lady purposely set him up.” he said
The Congress of University Academics at the Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU, Ile Ife, Osun State have called for investigation of the alleged randy lecturer of the institution who was caught on tape requesting for sex from one of his females students in exchange of marks.
