Uncovered Meat in Nigeria

The Seattle Times:

When Nigeria's education minister faced an audience of 1,000 schoolchildren, she expected to hear complaints of crowded classrooms and lack of equipment. Instead, girl after girl spoke up about being pressured for sex by teachers in exchange for better grades. One girl was just 11 years old.

Two years too old.

Obilade estimates she has helped hundreds of female students — and the odd male — who have been attacked by students or harassed by lecturers. Students have been raped in libraries, reading rooms and their own dorms, she says. "Some lecturers see young girls as fringe benefits," she says. "We've had cases where the girls have complained and the heads of their department have called them and said, 'Give him what he wants.' "

There was nothing in that article specifying that this was an Islamic province of Nigeria or an Islamic school.

Although is someone wanted to give me even odds, I'd bet that it was.

On second thought, look at the picture. It's a university, so no 11 year olds, but uncovered hair and faces, tee shirts. Not Muslims.
