UNIZIK rejects FG’s removal of new VC, Registrar, insists it followed approved guidelines

The management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka has rejected the annulment of the appointments of the new Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof Benard Odoh and its Registrar, R.I Nwokike.

The federal ministry of education had on Friday written the chairman of the governing council of the university, Amb Greg Mbadiwe, cancelling the council’s recent appointments, insisting they did not follow existing guidelines.

The letter which was signed on behalf of the Permanent Secretary Federal Ministry of Education, Mrs R. Ilyasu had urged the council to shelve all appointments until the new Minister of Education assumes office.

But in a reply to the letter, the Registrar of the Institution and Secretary of the Governing Council, Nwokike responded to the points raised by the ministry.

She said: “Contrary to any assumption of a formal engagement, the Pro-Chancellor did not have an official meeting with the Minister of State for Education. Instead, informal discussions took place between the outgoing Minister of State and the Council of Nnamdi Azikiwe University.
