After a deadlock riddled with legal tussle, the Governing Council of the
Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, has approved the appointment of
Prof. Ayobami Taofeek Salami as the new Vice Chancellor (VC).
Salami, who is the former Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic), succeeds
Prof. Bamitale Omole.
The Council took the decision at its meeting Monday evening after a long
deliberation on the issues halting the appointment of a new helmsman.
Council had shortlisted six candidates for the post out of whom only
three, including Salami, participated in the appointment interview.
The unions of non-teaching staff in the institution had raised eyebrow
over the selection process, a development viewed by many as an efforts
to stop the possible appointment of the new VC.
The unions – Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU)
and the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU) dragged the Council to court
to halt the process on the allegation of deliberately ignoring the rules
guiding appointment of a new VC.
Salami is a former Director, Institute of Ecology in the institution.
