SSANU calls for FUOYE VC’s suspension pending committee’s report on sexual harassment allegations

The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), Western Zone, has called for the suspension of the Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), Abayomi Fasina, pending the conclusion of investigations into allegations of sexual harassment levelled against him by a university staffer, Folashade Adebayo.

The university’s council recently set up a nine-member committee to probe the allegations of sexual harassment and victimisation against the VC.

However, in a letter addressed to the council chairperson on Monday, SSANU expressed concerns about the composition of the committee and the terms of reference assigned to its members.
