Olatunji Abanikanda, an expert in animal breeding and genetics, had his professorial appointment invalidated by the LASU management following a decision taken by the school’s governing council in August 2016.
But dissatisfied, the council constituted another committee, which, then, recommended the withdrawal of the professorial appointment, the judge further noted. “The way clause 9.0 is couched, the three-year maturation period can be by-passed and a Senior Lecturer appointed to full Professor so long as other qualifications for being a full Professor are met. Where this is the case, such appointment cannot be invalidated on the sole ground of not complying with the maturation period of three years. I must point out that the claimant was appointed full Professor, not promoted to that rank.
“The university’s legal unit was fully represented and my solicitor has officially communicated the judgement to the university,” he told PREMIUM TIMES on Saturday morning from the United States where he said he is for a conference. “I have not heard from them but can’t say if they have done anything in the past days that I have not been around.”
For what if I may ask?
