Factors responsible for students access to internet pornography have been traced towards the influence of friends, boredom and a bid to engage in adventure. In other words, students love what they see and enjoy engaging in internet pornography since they derive their utmost satisfaction from it. The study therefore suggest that there is need for parent, teachers and school to constantly censor what the children do with their phone especially internet enable ones, that government should interfere through concerned regulatory bodies and service providers of these platforms in a bid to stop the menace. Finally, it was suggested that pornography can be reduced in secondary schools through orientation programmes.
