Okereafor Ogechi Sharon, the female graduate of the Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Owerri, Imo State, who, in a viral Tiktok video credited her graduation to God and her private part has recanted.

As contained in a memo issued and signed by her counsel, Barr Ikechukwu Nwaopara, obtained by Theliberationnews on Tuesday, Okereafor said she meant to say ‘popsi’ (father).

It was learnt that the memo was in response to the summon by the school management for the graduate to appear before a disciplinary committee investigating the viral video.

The management had also promised that it would not spare the graduate from the punishment it planned to unleash on her.

Re: THE CASE OF OKOROAFOR OGECHI SHARON(THE GRADUATING STUDENT OF FED POLYNEK IN A VIRAL VIDEO)

We are solicitors to OKEREAFOR OGECHI SHARON( our Client under our Pro Bono(Free Legal Services) on whose behalf we write this memo to you.

We are aware that she will be facing the school disciplinary panel this morning and we wish to use this medium to express our confidence that the panel will carry out their duties in compliance with the principles of Fair hearing, Good conscience and Natural Justice devoid of harassment, intimidation and threats.

We have met and discussed with our Client and evidence before us shows that she has no intention to defame the character, standard and integrity of the institution. In her words what happened in the said viral video was a slip of tongue as a result of her uncontrollable ecstacy over her graduation.Her intended words were “God and Pupsy”(Not P*ssy) in appreciation of the almighty God and her Dad.It is clear therefore,that she had no intention whatsoever to use such a “fowl word” in the said viral video to cajole or blackmail the institution as no lecturer or name of the institution was mentioned or referred in the said viral video.
