President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the dissolution of the Governing Council of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University in Awka, Anambra State, and the removal of Prof. Bernard Ifeanyi Odoh, the Vice Chancellor, and Mrs. Rosemary Ifoema Nwokike, the registrar. This decision came after the council was found to have illegally appointed an unqualified vice-chancellor without following due process. The Federal Government had expressed concern over the council's apparent disregard for the university's governing laws in its selection process.
Additionally, President Tinubu also approved the removal of Engr. Ohieku Muhammed Salami as the Pro-chancellor and Chairman of the governing council of the Federal University of Health Sciences in Otukpo, Benue State. This decision followed Salami's illegal actions, including suspending the Vice-Chancellor without following the prescribed procedures.
