A rector called John Adekolawole at the Federal Polytechnic Ede in Osun State, Nigeria has been suspended following a discovery that a king-size bed was mounted in his office that enables him to sleep at work.
Speaking at an emergency congress of the union, Adekunle Masopa, chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) in the institution, said the board based its decision on 21 grounds.
According to TheCable, he said, “The following are some of the reasons adduced for the action: one, flagrant dereliction of duty by absconding from office for about a month.
Two, the desecration of the highly respected office of the rector with the creation of a bedroom furnished with a king-size bed which has made it possible for him to be sleeping at work.”
“Improper improvisation of a dual award programme of National Diploma plus NCE (Nigeria Certificate in Education) programme in collaboration with a consultant.”
