LAGOS JULY 2ND (URHOBOTODAY)-Of late, the Faculty of Arts of the Delta State University (DELSU) have been rocked with series of sexual scandals with the recent one involving a Professor of the Department of Fine Arts, who was allegedly being blackmailed by his personal female secretary for having sex with her for two years without settlement.
Urhobotoday gathered that a 39-year-old lady serving as a personal secretary to a Professor at the Delta State University, DELSU, Abraka was arrested for sending a malicious text message to her Boss to pay her N100,000 as ‘settlement’ for having amorous relationship with her or be ready to face public scandal.
Parading the lady (names withheld) at police command, Asaba, the state Police Public Relations Officer, (PPRO) Mr. Lucky Uyabeme, said she was picked up following a report lodged by the Professor who incidented a case of receiving a threat text message from an unknown person, demanding N100, 000 to avoid defamatory publication on him.
However, through intelligence policing, special anti-kidnapping squad operatives based at Obiaruku tracked and arrested the personal secretary to the professor.
Responding to questions from newsmen, the suspect said: “I did not do anything. My crime is that I am sleeping with a married man. The Prof. is my boyfriend. I asked him for N100, 000 or I would make it known to the public that we were dating. I wanted to end the relationship and use the money as a pay-off.
“We have been dating for two years now. I run a boutique and a business centre in Abraka. I am also the private secretary to the professor.
“He has not been paying. I did not want to blackmail him. I did not mean any harm when I sent the text message. I never expected it was going to be like this. I felt because we were dating, he would give me the money,” she added.
