ABOUT THE BOOK Despite the adoption of policies to combat sexual harassment on university campuses across Africa, a strong patriarchal tradition, combined with weak institutional frameworks, has resulted in a culture where too often, male lecturers view female students as 'fringe benefits' and trade sex as a currency for awarding academic grades. 'NAKED ABUSE' addresses the menace of sex for grades and provides a worrisome account of cases of sexual predators across the continent. The accompanying report of interventions made by critical stakeholders at a Webinar on how to create safe spaces for female students in Nigerian Universities highlights the challenges of transactional sex on African campuses. *************************************FROM THE BOOK COVER The author, writes Nigeria's Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, "has, in a few pages, done an excellent job of not just confronting us with the key issues in the sordid situations of sex for grades on the African Continent but he has also made several important suggestions on what to do and how to solve the problem." *************************************ABOUT THE AUTHOR Journalist, writer and former presidential spokesman, Olusegun Adeniyi, is a Fellow of the Nigerian Academy of Letters (FNAL).
