Dr. Chukwudi Michael Okoye, the assaulted lecturer, has described what happened on that fateful day, many hours after the well publicized event involving Goddy Mbakwe Precious, a 300-level student at UNIZIK.

Speaking to officials who confronted him on UNIZIK 94.1 FM, Dr. Chukwudi recounted his experience.

In a video, Dr. Chukwudi claimed that as he was heading from a lecture to his office, he noticed Precious creating a TikTok film in the faculty of arts hallway.

The scholar claims that after she said something he found offensive, he tapped her and said, “Excuse me,” since he had to go by.

Radio station management were informed by the instructor that he had challenged the student and instructed her to delete the video and she refused.

The scholar claimed that when he reached out to pick up her phone, things took a new turn, even though he insisted he was unsure if she was a student.

“…Like I said, I wouldn’t want to go into the narration because it will quite some time

“But, you know, like as eh, the only modification I will just give for the essence of recording this. I was leaving a classroom to my office when I saw the lady along the passage – along the corridor of the faculty of arts.

“You know, she was making a TikTok video and I needed to pass, you know, the way the place is and someone was by there. So, I just tapped her and said excuse me and walked off. And when she made that insulative comment.

“I had to turn back to first ascertain if she was a student. Though my student in the department. And then I needed her because I noticed it was a TikTok video. So, I needed her to delete it. I actually asked her to delete it right in front of me.

“When she refused, I stretched my hand to confiscate the phone and now, because I knew that would make her now say she is from so so department, because I had no knowledge of who she was.

“And that was when all hell let loose and the rest, like they say, is history. So, that is all I can say for now. Any other actions and whatever, I leave that to the committee to sort out…”
