FUNAAB lecturer under fire for using bible verse to set exam question for students

A Nigerian lecturer has come under fire after he set an exam question based on a bible verse. The attempt to make a civil engineering course relate to a quote from the holy book has puzzled many people and caused them to react.

The lecturer who teaches at the behest of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) set the exam question for a civil engineering course titled Hydrology.

In the question, he quoted from Ecclesiastes chapter one verse seven in the bible which reads thus: "All streams run to the sea but the sea is not full, to the place where the streams flow there flow again."

He then asked his students to relate the bible verse to the concept of hydrology. This strange question got the attention of many of then so that even in the midst of exam tension, they still had the time to screenshot the question.

The question has generated a lot of controversy amongst many since it went viral. One of the reasons why many did not like the whole idea of having an exam following such pattern is that the class was one which comprised of people of different religions.
