A school owner in Ibadan, identified as Mr Sunday Adeyemi, has reportedly travelled out of the country after being paid WAEC and NECO exam fees by his students.
According to media reports, Adejoke Lasisi, the Founder of Planet 3R, lamented the development on Facebook, revealing that some parents borrowed to pay the fees only to discover that they had not registered the students for the exams.
Adejoke added that the school owner sold his house and all his properties to fund his relocation move, ruining the students' lives.
Her Facebook post read in part:
"Some people don't fear God at all oooooo. Imagine collecting WAEC/NECO money from all of your students and used it to JAPA.
"An incident happened in my area recently...there's this man that own a school...the school has been in existence for a while now at Amuro, Egbeda LG Ibadan.
"The owner collected money for WAEC and NECO, some parents even went to borrow it only to find out he didn't register the students for exam.
"Yes, it's in my area here in Ibadan. Not far from my workplace. It's a trekking distance. They even took the matter to Agidigbo."
Meanwhile, the school owner’s actions were described as a betrayal of trust, especially considering he had operated “The Lord’s Favour” school for more than two decades.
Adejoke concluded her post by emphasising that while everyone has the right to seek opportunities abroad, it should not be at the expense of others, especially when it involves breaching trust and jeopardising the futures of innocent students.
