President of the Real Women Foundation and associate Pastor at Daystar Christian Centre, Pastor Nike Adeyemi wrote:”When in position of authority, it is totally wrong and abusive to demand for sex in exchange for the support that should be freely given. Why do these predators disguise as lecturers and pastors”.

Stella Damasus, a singer and actress noted that she is waiting to see how many  of the exposed lecturers in the investigative report  will be fired and charged with harassment.

Nigerian author, Lola Shoneyin in her reaction said:”More than anything, I hope #SexForGrades has shown our brothers, fathers and sons how hard everyday life can be for girls/women in Nigeria. Everywhere you turn, someone is fighting you for control over your own body! It’s exhausting”.

Music producer, Don Jazzy said lecturers who accept sex in exchange for grades are wrong.

“Comprehension is really underrated. Ladies who offer their lecturers sex for grades are wrong, Lecturers who accept are wrong, Lecturers who ask for it are very wrong. Lecturers and Students will get their acts together bcos of this documentary. Simple as that”
