Covenant University has sacked Dr. Stephen Ukenna, the disgraced lecturer arrested for raping a 17-year-old student in his office.

He was dismissed with immediate effect by the Chancellor and President of the University’s board, Bishop David Oyedepo.

Ukenna lectured in the Department of Business Management at the University, from 2017.

He was arrested on March 11 by the Ota Area Police Command in Ogun state for “forcefully having unlawful carnal knowledge of the student.”

The arrest followed a report by the parents of the victim.

Ukenna, according to the police spokesman, had lured the girl into his office on the pretense that he wanted to plan a surprise birthday party for her close friend.

Upon the report, the Area Commander Ota, Acp Muyideen Obe sent his men to arrest the lecturer.

The disgraced lecturer graduated from Nnamdi Azikiwe University with a Doctor of Philosophy in Marketing.
