Ondo Govt debunk plan to Impose Vc on AAUA

By: Ado Adeboye

Ondo State Government has on thursday debunk the rumour making round the state that the government is planning to impose a candidate as the next Vice Chancellor of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Akoko.

This, was contained in a press release signed by the Ondo State Commissioner of Information, Mr. Donad Ojogo, saying "a misleading tale is being insinuated.

The statement reads briefly: 

"

 "The attention of the Ondo State Government has been drawn to the narrations of seeming government's interference and undue influence in respect of the above subject matter. 

In particular, a misleading tale is being insinuated that the State Government is poised to impose a particular candidate as the next Vice Chancellor of the University. These narrations draw inspirations from a letter which emanated from Government stopping the selection process.  

Unnecessary as these stories seem, the public deserves to know that the letter from the Office of the Chief of Staff to Mr. Governor was meant to forestall an avoidable crisis of confidence amongst members of the University's Governing Council. This came to the fore as Government received a protest letter from some members in respect of the selection process. 

Owing to the importance Government attaches to University administration, it was decided that Mr. Governor who is the Visitor, meets with members of the Governing Council to straighten all contentious issues. The meeting holds next week.

Therefore, insinuations as a result of this development  are incorrect and should not be taken seriously. For the avoidance of doubt, the current government's belief in due process in the administration of the State's Public Service remains unwavering.

Signed

Donald Ojogo
