Dr Chukwuma Igbokwe is accused of bullying and harassing his junior colleague in his role as director of St Luke's Healthcare groupA Nigerian man living in the UK has been accused of sexual harassment after he repeatedly demanded sex from a junior colleague.Dr. Chukwuma Igbokwe is said to have bullied and harassed Vanessa Turley, a junior colleague while lording his position as director of St Luke’s Healthcare group over her.

Vanessa Turley, 42, was allegedly subjected to an 'onslaught of sexual innuendo' and verbal abuse when she worked with Igbokwe

The former diplomat was also said to have exposed himself to Mrs. Turley during the period of the assault which lasted two years.

Daily Mail reports:

Chukwuma Igbokwe, 46, grabbed her from behind and thrust himself towards her before exposing himself and asking her to perform a sex act, it was claimed.

Mrs Turley, 42, was allegedly subjected to an ‘onslaught of sexual innuendo’ and verbal abuse when she worked with Igbokwe at a private hospital in Ebb Vale, south Wales, between March 2008 and July 2010.

‘He touched me on a previous occasion, but the actual grabbing was the same time when he exposed himself and actually grabbed me from behind,’ said Mrs Turley.

She said he was aggressive and rude to her, asking her to bring him dinner or make his tea.

But it was in June 2008 that he is alleged to have called her into his office and said: ‘Because I want to f*** you over my desk.’

She told the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service how she quit her job and took legal action to stop Igbokwe when she realised she may not be his only victim.

‘It was just never ending with him,’ she said giving evidence.

‘I thought he’s got to stop this. People came to me and said it was happening to them.

‘I thought “when is this guy going to stop”.

‘The only person who had enough evidence to go forward was myself.’

Referred to as ‘Mrs A’ during the current proceedings, she told the panel she felt the police did not take her seriously when she complained, but was vindicated when she won an employment tribunal against her former bosses last year.

She said: ‘It was never about the money. It was about proving to people what he was like as a person and what he put me through.’

She added: ‘I was trying to stop him doing it to other females because in my eyes he had no respect at all no matter what your position in the company. It was a conquest.’
