Asuu files petition against university of ilorin accuses its management of over n2 billion fraud

A significant development!

According to reports, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has filed a petition against the University of Ilorin, accusing its management of embezzling over N2 billion.

Here are the details:

• The petition, which was filed at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), alleges that the university's management misappropriated the funds meant for staff salaries, infrastructure development, and other essential services.
• ASUU claimed that the university's management had been engaging in fraudulent activities, including diverting funds meant for staff salaries to personal accounts, and using the university's resources for personal gain.
• The union also accused the management of failing to account for the funds, despite repeated requests for transparency and accountability.
• The petition was signed by the ASUU Chairman, University of Ilorin branch, Dr. Kayode Afolayan, and was submitted to the EFCC on behalf of the union.

This development is significant because it highlights the need for transparency and accountability in the management of public funds. The University of Ilorin is a public institution, and it is the responsibility of its management to ensure that funds are used for the benefit of the institution and its stakeholders, not for personal gain.

The EFCC has a crucial role to play in investigating this matter and ensuring that those responsible for the alleged fraud are held accountable. The union's petition is a step in the right direction, and it is hoped that the EFCC will take swift action to address this issue.

What do you think about this development? Should the university's management be held accountable for alleged fraud?
