President Bola Tinubu has 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.
The decision followed Salami’s illegal actions, including suspending the Vice-Chancellor Prof Innocent Ujah without following the prescribed procedures.
A press statement by the state house, noted that despite the Federal Ministry of Education’s call for the unlawful suspension to be revoked, Engr. Salami refused to comply.
“Instead, he resorted to abusive and threatening behaviour towards the Ministry’s Directors, including the Permanent Secretary.
“The Federal Government reiterated that the primary responsibility of university councils is to ensure the smooth operation of university activities in accordance with the act establishing each university.
“President Bola Tinubu warned the councils not to create distractions in their universities as his government is focused on improving the country’s education standards.”
