He added that even in cases where the students deserve a first-class degree, he would not award them such grade.

The lecturer stressed that he had never and would not be granting good grades to anyone to get a first-class result.

“Well, as a lecturer, I find it hard to award grades that can lead to the award of first-class results to my students, not because do not necessarily deserve it, but of course, my mood just can’t, and I have personal reservations about first-class,” Qadri stated.

In another post, he said, “I don’t fail my students because I’m evil. Rather, i find joy establishing authority over people that are below me. I find joy in failing any student who dress(es) indecently to my class. I do not tell them to dress decently. Rather, I take note of them.”
