FUTO's Vice Chancellor, Prof. Nnenna Oti made the
announcement shortly after ASUU threatened to sanction her and others involved
in promotion of Pantami to the rank of a Professor.
Oti said yesterday that the management went to court on the
matter, saying any comment or discussion on it is subjudice.
But a senior management worker, who spoke in confidence,
claimed that ASUU has no right to dabble into a matter it has no jurisdiction
over.
“Just like ASUU does not tell the university council and its
Senate who to promote, it cannot tell them the criteria for promoting somebody
to rank of professor. In law, you cannot withdraw what you don’t have.
ASUU does not regulate appointments and promotions. Some of
these things are derived from NUC guidelines, and every university sets up its
standard,” the source said.
