Onoh dismisses claims of Education Minister’s interference in University of Abuja affairs
“The Minister of Education does not possess the executive or statutory powers to unilaterally deploy, transfer or appoint academic staff into the administrative structure of an autonomous institution such as the University of Abuja,” he stated.
He explained that decisions relating to the employment of academic staff, inter-university transfers and appointments into senior management positions fall within the statutory responsibilities of the university’s Governing Council and Senate.
Onoh also rejected claims that the minister facilitated the transfer of the lecturer from the Federal University Dutsin-Ma to the University of Abuja.
