UI lecturer reacts to report he gave students $100 dollars for attending his first class

Dr. Bisi Olawuyi, a lecturer with University of Ibadan reacts to reports that he gave 10 of his students 100 dollars each for attending his first class.

Earlier, reports made rounds that the lecturer had gifted ten of his students the dollar notes for being the first students to attend his class following the suspension of ASUU strike.

Pictures of the dollar notes he had supposedly given them went viral, as students trooped to the lecturer’s page in droves to solicit for theirs.
