Lol. OAU. A lecturer in my department didn't show up in class through the semester at all except once. And these same set of people would be the first to say that those in power are corrupt

Dear Sirs/Madams,

A Clarion Call For An Ad hoc Independent Enquiry into the Activities of the Acting HoD (Dr. O. P. Layeni) of the Department of Mathematics

Permit me to use this medium to intimate you about the happenings in the Department of Mathematics, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, through this introduction and the attached letters to this mail, and the need to address the ugly trends through an Independent Enquiry.

I am writing you on this matter having patiently waited for almost a year (during which I silently endured victimizations and intimidations from various quarters in the Department of Mathematics) for an Independent Ad hoc Investigative Committee to look into the matters raised in all my letters on the happenings in the Department.

It should be put on record that the Department of Mathematics had earlier set up an Ad hoc Committee (to investigate my conducts as the Lecturer-in-charge of MTH 301 during 2016/2017 Harmattan Semester) but the Ad hoc Committee (in her infinite wisdom) did not invite me to any of her meetings (if there was any meeting at all) nor asked me to confirm (or even deny) any written and verbal statements on the matters being investigated. All the same a report (submitted and adopted by the powers that be in the Department of Mathematics) was said to have been written on me under the supervisory guidance of the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni, while the same Committee was later asked to go ahead (by the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni) to investigate allegations leveled (by me) against the Acting HoD and some of the Committee’s own members. That was how an Acting HoD and some Academic Staff (Members of the Department of Mathematics) became the judge and jury (respectively) in their own cases? This is what we were expected to accept in the Department of Mathematics as Justice and Fairness.

Such were their frantic moves made to discredit my claims (which they already know are supported with hardcopy-proofs (See Other Attached Letters)) and to sweep away the memory of un-academic activities of some Academic Staff (Members of the Department of Mathematics) bothering on;

(a) Non-attendance of classes for a whole semester (until the last three (3) days of the last week of Lectures) by Dr. G. Akinbo (in MTH 405);

(b) Non-teaching and non-examination of Course Outline by Mr. K. A. Olurode (in MTH 318);

(c) Teaching and Administering of Test during Lecture-free Week by Dr. G. Akinbo (in MTH 405) and Dr. O. O. Fabelurin;

(d) Non-availabilty of the Lecturer-in-charge at Examination Hall for her Examination without any permission by Mrs. S. O. Ezeah (in STT 201);

(e) Shifting the venue of an Examination without recourse to the Director of Academic Affairs (leading to a registered student for the Course missing the Examination) by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in STT 201);

(f) Non-reportage of the non-availabilty of Lecturer-in-charge at Examination Hall to the appropriate authority by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in STT 201);

(g) Setting a correct question but with a wrong answer and not being able to supply a correct answer during and after the Large Service Course Coordination by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in MTH 201, coordinated by Dr. T. G. Jaiyeola);

(h) Marking of MTH 201 students’ scripts using a solution of a question that was either wrong or has not been verified to be correct by members of the Coordination Team till date (by Dr. T. G. Jaiyeola (as the Coordinator of the Course) and Dr. O. P. Layeni (as the Lecturer with the wrong solution))

(i) Requesting Student to Submit Medical Reports after Missing 60 % of Course Instructions in MTH 405 by Dr. O. P. Layeni and Dr. G. Akinbo;

(j) Hiding of information on his directive and endorsement of my activities and consequent victimization on the Usage of University Regulations Concerning 75 % Minimum Class Attendance in the Course Instructions of MTH 301 During 2016/2017 Harmattan Semester by Dr. O. P. Layeni;

As a way of fighting back at me (for my insistence on employing the University Regulations on the Conduct of Examinations and in highlighting the above strange and un-academic activities of these Academic Staff members who were duly reported to him), the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni, and these Academic Staff members

(i)removed me as the Coordinator of a 300-Level Course (MTH 318) during the just concluded 2016/2017 Rain Semester, giving no reason whatsoever for it;

(ii) queried me (not less than twenty times in two months of the just concluded 2016/2017 Rain Semester) on any frivolous matter from anybody (even if the person obviously went out of his way);

(iii) turned the monthly Department of Mathematics Board of Examiners’ Meeting to a venue for discussing what strategy they wanted to employ to “silence Dr. O. O. Oyadare,” in order not to allow the contents of my letters to see the light of the day;

(iv)forcefully withdrew MTH 405 students’ scripts from me and handed them to a co-Lecturer who did not attend to his own half of the Course (until the last three days of the 2016/2017 Rain Semester Lecture Period when the students were rushed through a photocopied handwritten Lecture Note by this co-Lecturer and his Test for the Course conducted during the University Approved Lecture-Free Week);

(v) degraded me to taking only Tutorials of Year-One Courses (as from the beginning of the present 2017/2018 Academic Session) in order to reduce my access to their activities;

(vi)refused to allocate Undergraduate students to me for Project Supervision (as from the beginning of the present 2017/2018 Academic Session);

(vii)refused to allocate any Postgraduate course to me to teach or any Postgraduate student to supervise (in a period of more than two (2) Years of being a Lecturer I in the University and more than two (2) Years after the completion of my Ph. D in the fields of Harmonic Analysis, Representation Theory and Geometry).

I may not be surprised if I am eventually asked to vacate my present office-space for an “appropriate Tutor’s corner” among the Department’s Postgraduate students.

The latest story being peddled around (after the permutation of a list of stories compiled for that purpose) is that “Dr. O. O. Oyadare’s mental health needs to be ascertained.” I am very happy to tell you that I am willing to again submit the hardcopy-proofs of all my claims as listed from (a) to (j) above (and as explained in the other attached letters to this mail) to the Faculty of Science Board of Studies and ready to submit myself for any medical evaluation by the University Authority.

I am simply and humbly asking for a Faculty of Science Ad hoc Investigative Committee, (which I believe should consist, but not limited to, all Professors in the Department of Mathematics, for their expert contributions on the technical aspects of my submissions), having had nothing to hide in my conducts, in order for this independent committee to take an unbiased look into the matters raised in my letters, all of which are now attached to this mail for your personal perusal and afford the Faculty of Science to make an informed decision on the matter.

I am very confident of the integrity of members of the Faculty of Science Board of Studies and that my call will be heeded, as the Faculty of Science had earlier in 2015 rescued my promotion to Lecturer I from being turned down due to the Department of Mathematics’ 2014 unilateral decision (under the Acting Headship of Dr. K. A. Olapade) to strike my job-entry publications out of my CV (thus denying me a well-deserved promotion in 2014) and the Department of Mathematics’ 2015 subsequent clandestine submission to the Faculty of Science that I came into the job (of a Lecturer II) with just one (1) job-entry publication, until the then Dean of Faculty of Science (after an Independent Enquiry into the matter) discovered the plot and asked the Department of Mathematics to formally apologise for deceiving the Faculty Review Panel in my case. The records of their failed attempts at blackmailing my personality are intact and may easily be checked in the Faculty Office.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,


Olufemi O. OYADARE




PS:
This was written by one of the lecturers. It should not be swept under the carpet.
What is happening in Obafemi Awolowo University?
On investigation, I also hear many of the lecturers/staffs in that same department of mathematics have been victimized, denied sick leave, one even resigned. Many promotions have been pegged, leaves denied.
#SAY NO TO VICTIMIZATION. EDUCATION IS NOT POLITICS BUT WHAT IT IS!

Good day great Nigerians, from the bottom of my heart I will speak my mind. Dr Oyadare is a flagrant stupid idiot who when things no longer goes in his wicked stead decided to go online to attack lecturers and students alike. The very first day I got to know that something was wrong with him was when he stopped most of 13 of my classmates from writing exams MTH301 to be precise, in spite of several pleads and kneels crawling and begging him him from the students, his colleagues and his senior colleagues.
Associate professor was begging him to allow students write the exam but he refused. In the worst of the case was when he was quoting the University rules on the matter. He said that the NUC through the University rules that anyone who doesn't make a 75% attendance shouldn't be allowed to write exam. But Oyadare was taking 5 hours class per week 2 hours twice and 1 hour on the last day of every week for a 2 unit course which the same NUC rules through the University in their wisdom that a 2 unit should be taught 1 hour twice a week but of which he disobeyed and was consistently taking attendance for every of the class.
Moreso, Oyadibu as the students have changed his name from Oyadare to Oyadibu due to his wickedness was formally lecturing in Adeyemi College of Education of which the students association of the mathematics worth a petition against him to their HOD for serious problems he was used to put students in and due to that he was sacked and fired from the institution. At the same time he was running two appointments in the two institutions as active appointee of the Federal Government and was duly collecting salary which of course is a punishable offense.
While he was sacked, he was equally appointed to OAU and again that is another serious offense punishable under the law.
He was giving excuses that he resides in Ibadan and he works in Ife and because of that was always late and rescheduling classes too of which he will still punish students for it and the federal government gave him the allowance for his accommodation in Ife.

In the presence of all the students of MTH302 and 306, he was shouting and screaming at his senior colleague in the department like a mad dog when the senior colleague of his went to meet him calmly and told him how that he had encroached into his class by 12 minutes and he was still taking attendance when he ought to have left the class and release the students. The following day all of us went to meet the lecturers with whom he was shouting at and we told him to write against him and that one said we should just leave him, the following day, he wrote the HOD that Dr Ogundare threatened him and in his corny way, didn't submit the letter to the HOD and went ahead to slip the letter through his main office that HOD rarely visit because of bulk of work on him and guess what he wrote in the letter. He said according to him that the HOD made a ploy with Dr Ogundare to kill him.

This same dog barking was the same lecturer who was praising Dr Layeni in 2014 during MTH306 back then that Dr Layeni is the best Mathemacian ever known to him and now because he's been reprimanded for his wrong doing and corrected now takes to the street and began to bark.

Just as a token of evidence, I have the letter written and signed by mathematics department at Adeyemi College of Education of the petition by the executive council of NAMSN Adeyemi College of Education Chapter. This same beast was a prayer point throughout all the fellowship centres at Adeyemi College of Education because of his notoriety and evil. Infant while he stopped 13 students from writing MTH301 in OAU, a particular went to meet his father who's a spiritual man with sole aim to punish him but that one said he shouldn't worry that what will deal with him is before him already and I never know he was going to meet his waterloo soon.

Now he's the saint amongst all the lecturers now. The same Mathematicians he insults and claims to know more than them have been lecturing for decades in OAU before he came into OAU from UI as Maths and Physics Edu with whom they had mercy on thinking he could learn. The MTH201 he claims there's no answer to is because he doesn't know it.
This man even irritates me, I swear if you know this man by name Oyadare, he shouldn't be living in the habitation of men. He kills dreams and he's simply a devil's agent in whom there shouldn't be any modesty in calling, he's a demon period!!!


Dr Layeni since I know him as a student is highly principled a man and knows his onions. Due to his principles sometimes students might be uncomfortable with it but those principles have only build us too. Even as principled as he is, for his legitimate right of stopping student from writing exams, he never for once does it. I had personally been absent from his class which I never stated any reason and he didn't stopped me from writing exams.
