The Kwara State government has clarified that the management of Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin had never funded the Senate President, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki’s political campaigns.
In a statement issued yesterday by the state commissioner for Tertiary Education, Barr Abdullahi Alikinla, the government also denied claims that a former chairman of the institution’s Governing Council contributed funds to the Senate President’s electioneering campaign in 2011. The state government further absolved Saraki of any involvement in the planned appointment of a new Rector for the Polytechnic and the Vice-Chancellor for Kwara State University, Malete .
It said the recruitment of the new heads for the institutions will follow due process such as advertisement of vacancies three months to the expiration of tenure, followed by the selection process after which the governor will approve the appointment on the Governing Council’s recommendation.
