The staff members, who spoke to newsmen on Thursday and begged anonymity for fear of being haunted, also said that those of them who were technologists were hired by due process and should not be among those axed on their job and qualifications for irregularities.
He also said that the most touching thing about the entire saga was the fact that 90 percent of the technologists who were working to accredit those courses related to science, technology and education were also sacked. To this end, they raised the alarm that if the dismissal was not reversed, the school would soon lose accreditation.
A staff, simply identified as Okufemi, said: “It was a shock to see names of staff with genuine employment process on the list; one of the shock is that all technologists employed for the purpose of accreditation across the university is enlisted.
“These technologists were approved by council in 2016, recruited via written and oral interview and less than 10 % of those interviewed were selected. They were used for NUC and COREN accreditation for over 43 department across faculties of sciences, educational, agricultural, engineering etc in 2016, 2018 and recently in 2019.
“This made the out gone council to confirm there appointment after two years of service and the present council also promote the technologist in October 2019.
To the surprise of the university community, all these technologists who made 90% of the entire technologist in the university were found on the list of those sacked.
“Should this decision stands, what happens to the accreditation the university is currently enjoying; what happens to departments and units in Sciences, Agriculture and Engineering who will be without any technologists?
“These and many more questions are egging for answers as the mix up in the list throws the entire university community into confusion,” he said.
