Achievers University Expels 15 Female Students Over Viral Explicit Videos

In a move to enforce strict moral and institutional standards, the Management of Achievers University, Owo, has announced the expulsion of 15 female students found guilty of producing and circulating explicit sexual videos.

The decision was made public by the Pro-Chancellor, Hon. (Dr.) Bode Ayorinde, during the university’s 17th Matriculation Ceremony held on Friday, February 13, 2026.

Addressing the newly admitted students and their parents, Dr. Ayorinde emphasized that the institution operates a zero-tolerance policy toward any conduct that brings the university's name into disrepute.

The Violation: The expelled students were found to have breached the university’s Code of Conduct, specifically regarding moral rectitude and the use of digital media for indecent purposes.

The Message: The Pro-Chancellor warned that while the university provides a world-class environment for learning, it will not hesitate to prune "bad eggs" to protect the integrity of its degree.

The Acting Vice-Chancellor, Professor Amos Aremu, echoed these sentiments, noting that university life is a period for discipline, resilience, and intellectual growth. He stressed that the school’s regulations are designed to mold students into responsible citizens, and reckless behavior would always carry severe consequences.

The decision has sparked a significant debate regarding the role of private universities in policing the private lives of students.

Supporters of the decision argue that as a private, faith-influenced institution, Achievers University has a duty to maintain a "sanitized" environment and uphold the "In-Loco-Parentis" (in place of a parent) status.

Critics, however, question if expulsion is too harsh a penalty for actions that may have occurred in private, suggesting that counseling or suspension might be more rehabilitative.
