INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Exploitation of students by teachers is
not a new phenomenon in our society. In the past, some students have been
physically and emotionally exploited. Students are made to work in their
teachers farm, carry firewood to their teachers house, fetching water for their
teachers etc. nowadays, it is a different thin altogether, the act of selling
monographs, and text books has given some bad impression on the lecturers
manipulate and exploit the students to make their own money without considering
the bad economic situation prevailing in Nigeria now. Again students are been
exploited by paying one levy or the other like departmental, levy, test levy
etc in the years past, when education was what it suppose to be, students were
not being taxed for anything. Text books and handouts were given free of charge
but now the reverse has been the case, teachers have turned our schools to
become book shops where buying and selling of books are made available and
compulsory in the name of money, both in primary and secondary level.
The indigent students that have no money
to buy these books are being made to fail the course because of the fact that
they could not purchase these books. Teachers also exploit the students through
sexual harassment and sorting of result where the students are made to pay
either in cash or kind. Students are no longer serious with their studies since
they feel that if they are able to meet up with the demands of their teachers
they pass. For the fact that this situation of exploitation has been a burden
to students in secondary schools and tertiary institutions, parents and
guardians who see to the education of their children and relations have little
or no left over money with them due to the fact that the money were being taken
away by teachers in one way or the other. Money used in the olden days to train
three to four people in the university is now spent on one person.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The teachers who have made textbooks and
handiwork compulsory in primary schools have created some anxiety and stealing
into pupils, while in secondary and higher institutions have created also some
anxiety and frustration into the students. I the sense that students are forced
to have carryover by some lecturers that made their monographs and text books
to be compulsory. These teachers go along way to prevent students from having
their continuous assessment thereby making them to have incomplete results.
This has created the act of do or die attitude towards students who have been
seeking ways of passing their courses. This leads to student’s starvation and
also make prostitution and promiscuity to become well pronounced especially in
higher institutions. Because of this immoral attitude by teachers, a good
number of students have fallen victims of contacting sexual transmitted disease
as well as victims of unwanted pregnancy in our higher institutions of learning
today. This study seeks to find out the different ways students are exploited
by the teachers.
