THE SAD STORY OF ADEYEMI COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, ONDO


It's about time the truth be told about happenings at Adeyemi College of Education. The reversal to a College of Education is about the best thing at this time to save the college from total collapse. Adeyemi College of education was upgraded to a University 4 days to Jonathan exit and he appointed his friend and classmate Prof. Richard King who is a Professor of Zoology as Vice Chancellor two days to his exit as President.

 It is important to note that Prof. King has been out of the University system for over 10 years and has been a politician without affliction to any University. His qualification for the job is being a member of Jonathan Campaign team and his personal friend. Prof. Richard King was appointed on the 27th of May, but didn't resume to the office until the 3rd of August due to health issues. On

   resumption, he came with 5 special assistants who all lodged in the most expensive hotel in town on tax payers money. It is important to also note that since the 3rd of August till date, Prof. King has only been to the college thrice and spent less than 3 hours in total in the college. One of his Personal Assistants, Mojeed is the one running the college, writing minutes on memo and meeting with staffs. A "Yar Adua" scenario has been playing out. Even the memo issued out claiming the University status has been put on hold does not have Prof. King's real signature but was signed by Mojeed. What kind of University is this supposed to be. I implore the media houses and journalist to verify all this claims. President Buhari is known for due process. Let due process be followed in the upgrading of colleges of education to Universities if it is absolutely necessary. A cult of lecturers, the "Third Eye" is the one trying to incite lecturers and students in the college. They are against the innovative ideas and change the young 46 year old Provost, Professor Ogen has introduced since his assumption of office. They are against his refusal to join their cult and continue to hold staffs and student in perpetual bondage as it was in the past. It is important for the security agencies to investigate this and bring everyone of them to book.
