Chioma, 24, a final year Mass Communication student of the Crescent University of Abuja, had been under serious pressure to pass Dr. Emeka’s course. Friends described her as quiet but ambitious, willing to do anything to graduate this year.
Dr. Emeka, 42, married with two children, lectured in the Department of Political Science. Among students, his name was often whispered with suspicion — but no one ever had proof.
Last Saturday night, Chioma told her roommates she was stepping out to “collect project materials.” She took a cab to a lodge in Garki Area 11. An hour later, Dr. Emeka’s Toyota Corolla pulled up. He looked around carefully before slipping inside the same building.
What neither of them noticed was Blessing, Chioma’s coursemate, who had quietly followed her. Blessing had suspected something for weeks, but what she saw that night left her speechless. From across the parking lot, she recorded a short clip of Dr. Emeka entering the lodge and joining Chioma upstairs.
By the next morning, the video was everywhere in Crescent UniAbuja WhatsApp groups. The caption alone said it all: “Our lecturer no dey carry last.” Parents, staff, and students were buzzing, shocked that a married lecturer could be caught sneaking around with a final year student.When cornered later, Chioma said, “It was just project help, people are exaggerating.” But Blessing, the same friend who leaked the clip, told others, “If it was only project work, why did they choose a lodge at night?”
Dr. Emeka has remained silent, though sources close to his home confirmed his wife already confronted him about the viral clip.
Moral Lesson: No matter how careful people think they are, secrets find a way out. The truth will always chase those who try to hide it.
