EKSU Sacks Six Lecturers, Suspends 300 Students

  

The Vice-Chancellor, Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, Prof. Oladipo Aina, has said that the institution has sacked six lecturers and rusticated 300 students for alleged intimate harassment and plagiarism, among others.

He spoke to our correspondent in Ado Ekiti, while stressing that his administration was committed to providing basic infrastructure in the school.

Aina said vices, comprising cultism, examination malpractice, take advantage of and forgery, among others, that portrayed the university in bad light would soon end.

Aina, who said there were no fewer than 25,000 part-time students when he assumed leadership of the university in 2011, said the majority of them belonged to different cult groups.

He linked their exposure to cult groups to lack of a busy schedule.

Aina said, “There were no fewer than 25,000 students in the part-time school when I came into office. The first thing I did was to stop the admission to the programme. We had to re-screen the students to distinguish the real from the fake ones.

“Again, many of them dropped out on their own.

“Now, we have less than 10,000 of them and those remaining are the genuine students. You cannot hear that cultists are disturbing here any longer.”
