The ‘sex for mark’ professor on Monday changed his plea from ‘not guilty’ to ‘guilty’ when the case came up for hearing.

The prosecutor, Mr. Shogunle Adenekan, informed the court that all parties in the matter had reached an agreement and pleaded for a suspended sentence for the disgraced professor.
