The vice chancellors of Nnamdi Azikiwe University,
Awka, Anambra State, Prof. Joseph Ahaneku, on Thursday said more than 40
percent of the staff of the university spend more time watching pornographic
videos and other illicit films at work than doing the work for which they are
employed.
The VC said he was able to monitor the development
in offices on campus from his own network.
He said when he got the report of the trend and
discovered that some people sat in their offices only to watch illicit movies
during office hours, he took a decision to curb it by
censoring internet
services in the university from his office.
He said the staff of the institution had demanded
computers to facilitate their jobs, only for them to use the computers for
negative things.
The VC said, “This is one reason we shut down
YouTube from the university’s resource centre.
“People should be made to be conscientious as well
as do what they have been assigned to do and eschew indolence.
“There have been a lot of abuses on facilities that,
ordinarily, should aid staff in their jobs and as a result plans s are underway
to remove the televisions in central offices.
He said when he visited such offices, rather than
find staff watching news programmes to obtain good information, they were
engrossed watching illicit videos, thereby implying that some of them did not
need the facilities.
Ahaneku added, “Spending government time without
doing what one is paid for is an act of corruption.”
He said the Anti-Corruption and Transparency Unit of
the university was working to curb corrupt practices among employees and
students
