The Senate has summoned the Vice Chancellor of the University of Ibadan, Prof Kayode Adebowale, over an alleged assault, conspiracy and victimisation of a female lecturer, Dr Adenike Ogunshe, of the Department of Microbiology.
He said the Senate might take appropriate sanctions against the Vice Chancellor if he failed to appear in person before the panel at the next sitting.
“If the authorities of the University of Ibadan failed to appear before the Senate next week and explain why this woman should not be reinstated, we would recommend sanctions against the institution. “The VC should respect the laws of the land by obeying the judgment of the court and reinstating the woman. Failure to do so would amount to contravening the Nigerian constitution.”
