13 Staff Dismissed from Ambrose Alli University for Misconduct
Thirteen staff members of Ambrose Alli University (AAU) have been dismissed out of the 209 currently being charged for all sorts of misconduct ranging from sexual harassment, corruption, and age manipulation among others.
Acting Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof. Asomwan Adagbonyi revealed this while submitting the report of the University Staff Disciplinary Committee (USDC) of the school to the chairman of the Special Intervention Team (SIT), Andrew Olotu in the government house.
The acting VC mentioned that 77 cases were still pending while the remaining 132 cases have been concluded and decisions are being taken on them.
Prof. Adagbonyi stated that among the 13 staff dismissed, four were from the Faculty of Engineering; two from the Department of Nursing Sciences; one from the Department of Law; three from the Faculty of Basic Medical Science; one from the Department of Medical Laboratory Science; one from Department of Political Science and one from the University farms.
“For other charges such as age discrepancies and multiple dates of birth and other forms of misconduct, the committee recommended demotion and redeployment, loss of annual increment for years (depending on the gravity of the offense and findings of the SIT), and leniency.
Adagbonyi further stated that the institution will continue to do its best and cooperate with the SIT in sanitising the school and also ensure that the staff holds firm to the institution’s work ethics, rules, and regulations.
The Head of the Special Intervention Team, Andrew Olotu, however, appreciated the USDC for their fair, objective and unbiased investigations and recommendations,
Olotu added that the SIT will further investigate and deliberate on the report so that anyone found guilty does not escape the law.
