Board suspends Ede Polytechnic’s rector for fixing a king-sized bed in his office

John Adekolawole, the rector of Federal Polytechnic, Ede, Osun state, has allegedly been suspended by the academic board for sleeping at work.

Adekunle Masopa, chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) in the institution, during an emergency congress of the union, said the board based its decision on 21 grounds.

According to newsmen, 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.”
