The 18-year-old admission seeker allegedly raped by a part-time lecturer of the University of Lagos, Mr. Akin Baruwa, has been offered a scholarship by the management of Adeleke University, Ede, Osun State.

According to PUNCH, the institution became concerned about the fate of the girl following series reports detailing the girl’s experience.

Vice Chancellor of the institution, Prof. Oluwole Amusan, said the university took the decision because it was moved by the plight of the girl.

“Giving out scholarships to indigent students is not new to us. Our founder had a foundation whose existence preceded the university, through which scholarships were given to students.

“Since the university was established four years ago, the tradition has continued.”

He said the VC, the scholarship would cover the four-year duration of Mass Communication, which the girl has chosen to study, a course which UNILAG has said she was not qualified for with her 211 score in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

He said it has not been determined whether the scholarship would be full or partial since he had not yet interacted with the father of the victim.
