The Governing Council of Osun State University, UNIOSUN, has terminated the appointments of three principal officers of the state institution including the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Bashir Okesina with immediate effect.
The Registrar and Bursar Dr. Julius Faniran and Alhaji Fatai Lasisi respectively were handed over to them last Tuesday.
The termination of their appointments followed the recommendations of a visitation panel set up by the Visitor to the university, Governor Rauf Aregbesola. The panel looked into the allegation of financial mismanagement in the institution.
But the university branch of Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU),  said that the action was done in bad faith.
ASUU in a statement by its Chairman, Dr. Abiona Oluseye and eight others said the sack violated the principle of equity and fairness.
The statement said: “It is instructive to state that a visitation panel was constituted by the Governor of the State of Osun and the report submitted. ASUU-Uniosun is of the opinion that it would have been better for the council to wait for the white paper on the report to be released by the Governor before assuming the position of a judge in their own case.’’
“Against the backdrop of the on-going, ASUU-UNIOSUN hereby calls for the immediate reversal of the decision pending the outcome of the white paper on the matter.’’
