The Senate of the Ladoke Akintola
University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso on Wednesday, said that it has
approved the withdrawal of certificate issued to one Oluwanisola Femi Akeju, a
graduate of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering in the
institution.
Public Relations Officer of the
university, Mr. Akin, in a statement said Akeju’s
certificate was withdrawn due to his refusal to appear before several panels
raised to investigate his allegations of victimization against a lecturer in
the Department of Pure and Applied Biology of the university.
Fadeyi in the statement said that
Akeju had claimed that the lecturer failed him in a particular Biology course
for six years but failed to prove his case before the investigate panels set up
to investigate the matted by the institution, insisting that this made the
institution to withdrew his certificate.
The institution’s spokesman added
that other sanctions approved by the university’s senate are that, issuance of
academic transcript to him is suspended forthwith; the statement of results
issued by the university to Mr. Akeju be immediately invalidated, and that his
academic certificate be withheld until further notice.
The statement reads:
“Senate of the Ladoke Akintola
University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, has approved the withdrawal of
certificate issued to one Oluwanisola Femi Akeju, a graduate of the Department
of Computer Science and Engineering, for refusing to appear before several
panels raised to investigate his allegations of victimization against an
unnamed lecturer in the Department of Pure and Applied Biology of the
University.
“The alumnus, who graduated in
the 2013/2014 academic session, with Matriculation number 083659, had in a
publication of March 15, 2018 on an online medium, claimed that a certain
lecturer failed him in a particular Biology course for six years.
“All efforts made by different
arms of the Institution to enable Mr. Akeju shed more light on the allegations
before various investigation panels yielded no fruit as he refused entreaties
made to him towards ensuring that he got redress and bring the said lecturer to
book.
“Other spurious claims contained
in his write-up included that he sat for BIO 101, 102, 104 and 106 and scored grade
‘A’ in all of the courses. Investigation into his academic record however
indicated that Oluwanisola Femi Akeju registered for and passed BIO 101 (E),
102 (E), 103 (E) and did not register for BIO 104 in his first year in the
University until the second semester of his extra year in 2013/2014 session and
passed with ‘E’ grade.
“Bothered by the negative effect
of such unfounded allegations on the University’s profile and the fact that he
has continued to fail to honour several invitations by the panels set up by the
University, the authority has therefore decided that, all rights and privileges
extended to Mr. Akeju Oluwanisola Femi as an alumnus of this University stand
suspended.
“Other sanctions approved by the
University’s Senate are that, issuance of academic transcript to him is
suspended forthwith; the statement of results issued by the University to Mr.
Oluwanisola Femi Akeju be immediately invalidated, and that his academic
certificate be withheld until further notice.”
