The management of the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU), Bauchi has dismissed one of his lecturers, Dr. Usman Mohammed Aliyu over allegation bordering on sexual harassment of a student.

LEADERSHIP reports that a postgraduate student of the Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Engineering Technology, Mrs Kamila Rufai Aliyu, had last year petitioned the University management requesting investigation into the matter.

The student also accused Dr. Aliyu of threatening her academic success if she failed to comply with his demands.

Learning about the petition against him, Aliyu filed a defamation lawsuit in court against the student, the department and the University.
