Witness tells court about nude video, blow job with professor of law
A witness, who alleged sexual assaults by the Dean of the Faculty of Law, University of Calabar, Professor Cyril Ndifon, has revealed what transpired.
During the court hearing on Wednesday, the witness admitted to performing a blow job on the professor. A blow job is an oral sex act done on a man’s penis.
The witness told the court that she gave the professor a blow job in his car outside her hostel. However she didn’t state so in a complaint made earlier to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission.
She also concealed from the ICPC team that she sent to the professor her nude video in which she inserted her fingers into her private part.
The latest revelation came to fore while the witness was cross-examined by Ndifon’s lawyer, Joe Agi, SAN.
Agi asked the witness: “You told this court that the 1st defendant forced you to do a blow job?”
The witness responds: “Yes, in his car. He bent my neck and gave me N3000 after for treatment.”
“I put it to you that that is not true,” the lawyer said, but TKJ insisted it was true.
Agi also challenged the witness’ claim that the professor forced her to repeat the sex oral when she visited his office.
“In those two different days, you never told ICPC in your statements that the 1st defendant did blow job with you; you just manufactured that later?” he asked.
Responding, the witness said: “I did not tell them in my statements because I was ashamed about it.”
She had also told the court that when Ndifon forcefully bent her neck to give him a blow job, she cried and went and told her roommates in the hostel.
But when the lawyer asked her if she put the experience about informing her roommates in the statements, the witness admitted she did not.
She equally admitted that she did not put it in her statement that Ndifon gave her N3000 for treatment after the blow job experience.
The witness said she didn’t write the claims in her complaint letter because she was ashamed. But Agi countered.
“I did not tell the ICPC about the nude video I did inside the toilet where I put my two fingers in my vagina because I only did a summary of it in my statement,” she said.
The witness said she did all the chats and others with Ndifon because of the admission he promised her and because of her safety after the sexual harassment.
She disagreed with the lawyer that the anti-corruption commission guided her on what to write.
“The ICPC did not guide me on what to write,” she said.
Agi then told the witness he believed the WhatsApp conversation between her and Ndifon was meant to be made private.
He proceeded: “Did he put a gun on your head?” he asked, but she said Ndifon did not put a gun on her head.
“Would you have been happy if 1st defendant had sent those messages and videos to people? Agi asked again.
“I will not be happy if he had shared it with people because I was not happy sending them,” she responded.
The case has been adjourned for further hearing.
