Following the approval of the Disciplinary Committee’s report by the University Governing Council on Tuesday, the Federal University of Oye Ekiti sacked the institution’s embattled Registrar, Mr Olatunbosun Odusanya.

On April 20th, 2021, the Council, led by Dr. Mohammed Yahuza, suspended Odusanya from office to allow for inquiries into allegations of corruption levied against him over irregularities in appointments between August 1, 2020, and February 10, 2021.

This was revealed in a statement issued on Wednesday by Foluso Ogunmodede, Chief Information Officer, and Wole Balogun, Special Adviser on Media Matters to the Vice-Chancellor, titled, “FUOYE Governing Council sacks Odusanya as Registrar.”

“His sack was approved by the University Governing Council on Tuesday after critically looking at a report by the Council Disciplinary Committee set up to review the report of the Investigative Committee which reviewed all appointments during the said period. However, the Council has approved Mr Mufutau Ibrahim as FUOYE’s Acting Registrar,” the statement added.

Fasina said, “Those entertaining such fear or being furnished with such rumour should perish the thought as my administration is not going to witch-hunt any member of staff. I have no plan to sack any staff member of our great Ivory Tower.

“However, in line with the Council’s directive, we will review all the said appointments with a view to regularising all appointments that measure up to our standards, most notably departmental needs, qualifications, proper placement, and due process.

“I assure you, no one will be a victim of the suspension of the Registar by the Governing Council of our great Citadel of Learning.

“Rather, staff members shall continue to enjoy the best in terms of incentives to work, proper training to hone their skills and amazing welfare packages that will continue to gladden their hearts.”
