BBC Africa Eye, released a documentary that looked at the ever popular but unfavorable sex for grades phenomenon in schools.
The investigation, which took over nine months to complete, focused at two major universities in West Africa; University of Ghana, and the University of Lagos.
After the release of the documentary, many people took to social media to express their disgust at the conduct of these lecturers. Others also used the opportunity to tell their own sex for grades story.
Actress and movie producer, Yvonne Nelson, also took to social media to share her views on the trending issue, but her tweet didn’t go down well with a lot of people
Yvonne in a tweet commenting on the issue at hand insinuates that ladies who do not cover their bodies on social media are causes of sexual harassment.
Her tweet reads: ”Sex for grades! Sex for jobs! Sex for everything in our part of the world! Your brains don’t matter here. It’s the covered parts they want, oh wait, these parts aren’t covered anymore…it’s free on social media. Will it ever change??”
It angered most fans on social media attacking her calling her hypocrite, that her style of dressing both in person and on social media is more scanty and she has the guts to attribute to ‘sex for grades’ issue in Africa to how ladies dress.
Yvonne Nelson was of the view that, sex for grades won’t end any time soon considering the manner in which some female students dress in the various tertiary institution.
