Professor Awonusi Segun, of the University of Lagos, has denied the sexual harassment allegations levelled against him by an unidentified female student of the university.
The professor who was accused of sexually molesting a female student in the university has said that the lady wants to blackmail him.
Prof. Segun said that his mobile phone was stolen and the viral photos of him were taken about four years ago.
He also said the unidentified lady who had alleged that she was constantly used as a pawn in his hands asked him for a sum N400,000 or she will release inappropriate photos of him.

Olusegun, who was a former vice-chancellor of Tai Solarin University of Education disclosed this in an interview with New Telegraph.
The professor said,
“It is blackmail. The said pictures were taken about four years ago but sometimes ago, I received a message from a particular lady, saying she was in possession of my unclad photos and that I should pay her N400,000.
“The lady said if I did not pay the money, she would go public with the photos. I think this is what she had promised.”
However, the university in a statement issued by the communication unit of the corporate affairs directorate confirmed the incident but has promised to get to the roots of the matter.
