Alleged Plagiarism: Segun Adeniyi withdraws book on ‘Sex for Grade’
Segun Adeniyi, a former spokesman to late President Umaru Yar’Adua, has announced the withdrawal of copies of his recently published book titled, ‘NAKED ABUSE: Sex for Grades in African Universities,’ following backlash online.
He, was, however, compelled to withdraw the book from the shelves after, a Nigerian writer, OluTimehin Adegbeye, accused him of plagiarising and reprinting statements by The African Feminist Initiative without getting permission.
She also tweeted at Ford Foundation stating that Adeniyi’s book was apparently written at their behest. “I will give 1,000 copies free to the African Feminist Initiative and also give out the remaining 3,000 plus copies free of charge. A reprint will not include their statement. Once again, my apologies!,” his tweet read.
