It’s too early to renege on your campaign promises to us – TASCE lecturers tell Abiodun
romises he made to them before and after his election by putting an end to their “illegal” arrest and arraignment.five lecturers of TASCE were arrested on his order because they allegedly disrupted the matriculation ceremony in the institution under the guise of protesting non-payment of their salaries and arrears.
“It is too early for this government to be out against us. We were on the good book of the governor before, during and after his election; with good promises from him to us. We met him also on April 24, and he reiterated his earlier promises which we are still waiting. Though we did not sign a written agreement with Gov Abiodun, he gave us his words.”
“The governor alleged that we disturbed matriculation and orientation ceremonies that were conducted peacefully with pictures shared on social media, but we were charged for armed robbery, disturbance of public peace, burglary etc. What is the correlation between these allegations and governor’s reason for our arrest?” he asked.
The lecturer alleged that the Provost of the college, Dr Lukman Kiadese, with the backing of the governor had been harassing staff of TASCE with policemen; adding that most of them being trailed by the police could no longer sleep in their houses. Meanwhile, Aborisade has appealed to Gov Abiodun to fulfill his promises by paying them “the 50% balances of May and June with full salaries of July and August 2019” to ameliorate their problems; while also begging him to “set machinery in motion on how to gradually defray the backlog salaries owned by OGD and Amosun administrations.”
“The provost of the college is giving wrong information to the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and the SSG, who are in turn feeding the governor with such lies without verifying them.
