Management of Sunyani Technical University (STU) has refuted an alleged sex-for-grades scandal leveled against some lecturers at the university, describing the claim as untrue and baseless.

“Management wishes to state unequivocally that after thorough investigations into the recently alleged sex-for-grades claim by a former SRC President of the University, Mr.

It would be recalled that on February 14, 2024, Management of STU issued a press release announcing the establishment of a committee to investigate the alleged sex-for-grades claim by the former SRC President.

According to the statement, the committee adopted an interactive approach in gathering evidence and met the complainant via Zoom, as he (complainant) could not be physically present due to his busy work schedule in the United Kingdom (UK) Army.

During the maiden meeting with the complainant, he (complainant) gave high assurance of getting pieces of evidence including videos, audios, and alleged victims of the sex-for-grades scandal to support his assertions to the committee, it said.

However, the committee had to draw the curtain on its investigations since no evidence of any kind was provided by Mr Agyekum; be it the supposed videos, audios, or anything from any of his alleged victims to the committee.

Some of his alleged victims of the sex-for-grades scandal whose contact numbers were given by him to the Committee, when contacted, were not prepared to give any evidence, in that regard, for consideration by the Committee.
