FBC Student Urges University to Remove Momoh Jah-Stevens from Lecturing Role

November 9, 2025

A law student at Fourah Bay College, Edwina Jamiru, has publicly called on the University of Sierra Leone to remove suspended Judge Momoh Jah-Stevens from his lecturing position at the Faculty of Law.

Jamiru, who says she shares a child with Stevens—a fact she states was confirmed through a court-ordered DNA test—has been vocal online since the test results became public. The development has intensified conversation around the allegations already surrounding Stevens.

In a video shared on TikTok, Jamiru appealed to the university to end its association with the lecturer, who had previously been suspended by the Judiciary when the matter first surfaced. She alleged that Stevens took advantage of his role as her lecturer and engaged in a relationship with her — something she describes as an abuse of power.

Jamiru further claimed that despite his suspension, Stevens continues to lecture at the university. She insisted that his removal is necessary and accused him of being “deceptive” in their interactions. According to her, other students who may have had similar experiences are hesitant to speak out due to fear of retaliation from some lecturers.

She also criticised another lecturer, whom she says advised her to repent for engaging in the relationship. Jamiru argued that protecting misconduct within academic institutions is equally wrong.

Jamiru ended her message by stating that Stevens’ continued presence at FBC and within the Judiciary undermines both institutions. Some social media users have echoed her concerns, while others worry she may face backlash as a student in the department where he teaches.
