The governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has dissolved the Governing Council of the Osun State University, Osogbo.
A statement dated May 19 by the State Head of Service, Samuel Ayanleye Aina, said Adeleke has approved the dissolution of the institution’s Governing Council led by Malam Yusuf Alli.
According to the statement: “The Governor of Osun State, Senator Demola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, has approved the dissolution of the Governing Council of Osun State University with immediate effect.
“While thanking the Council members for their selfless service and commitment to the University, the governor equally appreciates them immensely for their contributions to the development of the University in particular and the State at large and wishes them the best in their future endeavours.”
The Governing Council appointed by the former state governor, Rauf Aregbesola, in 2016, and chaired by Mrs Folorunso Alakija, was reappointed by the immediate past governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, after completing its first 5-year tenure with Ali as chairman.
