It was finally suggested that, the absence of policy guidelines to define what constitutes sexual harassment could in turn have encouraged the perpetration of the act in the institutions studied. Institutes higher education without explicit policies against sexual harassment are less likely to have to stress-free environment that will promote positive employee and students attitude. Secondly, there is a need for student and their trainers to be educated on what constitutes sexual harassment. Strongly disciplinary measures, including dismissal must be taken to the lecturers who harass female students and legislation which protect female students from sexual harassment must be introduced as there seems to be unwillingness in the part of society to recognize the problem.
