The Federal Government on Thursday directed the outgoing Vice -Chancellor of the University of Port Harcourt, Ndowa Lale , to embark on compulsory leave.
The Deputy Vice -Chancellor (Administration), Prof . Regina Ogali , was directed to take over the affairs of the institution, pending the appointment of a substantive VC.
The directive was contained in a May 29 letter signed by the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Education, Sonny Echono , on behalf of the Minister of Education , Adamu Adamu.
The letter , sighted by our correspondent, said the arrangement would take effect from June 12 , 2020 .
Meanwhile , the Academic Staff Union of Universities, University of Port Harcourt branch, has demanded the immediate reconstitution of the institution ’ s Governing Council .
The union ’ s demand is coming on the heels of the dissolution of the varsity ’ s Governing Council on May 27 , 2020 , by the Federal Government.
In a statement on Wednesday by its Chairman , Dr Austen Sado , ASUU said the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd. ) , should respect the provisions of the Universities Miscellaneous Amendment Act and immediately constitute a Governing Council for University of Port Harcourt.
Sado said, “ Without engaging in any form of legalese, it is clear beyond equivocation that any council so dissolved shall almost immediately be reconstituted as if the council were not ab initio dissolved . ”

Uniport ....

Ehen compulsory go eventually turn to sack
Na

That Lale get bad name for everywhere.

Prof Lale has been overdoing. He was the one that introduced the "no school fees, defer your admission".
His predecessor wey no de laff, him own self tire person.

Prof Don Baridam remains the best VC from 2000 till date. In his time, there was massive infrastructural construction etc.

BTW, why is it that in a FEDERAL university like Uniport, ONLY Indegenes of Rivers State produce VCs and SUG Presidents

The Boy is Good (an Igbo Boy) won some years ago but the VC then (Ajienka) gave it to Gift (an Ogoni boy). Nepotism everywhere in this country!!!
I can tell you more and more examples.
