The Management of Tai Solarin University of Education Ijagun, Ogun State, has called on one of its lecturers, Dr. Olaniran Balogun to honour ICPC investigation to clear himself of the allegations against him.
Gbenga Omilola, Deputy Registrar, Media and Corporate Relations, made this known in a statement issued on Saturday.
Omilola stated that the attention of the management of the University has been drawn to a recent publication by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) declaring Dr Olaniran Balogun wanted for abuse of office and demand for gratification.
The University hereby states as follows:
“That the said Dr Olaniran Balogun is a lecturer at the Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijagun, Ogun State.
“That Dr Balogun is currently under investigation for the alleged misdemeanor and has since been relieved of his position as the Head of Department, Religious Studies.
“That he has also been placed on interdiction until he clears himself of the various allegations levelled against him by ICPC.
“That the University Management would continue to do all within its powers to protect the good name and image the University has built for itself over the years.
“The University would therefore not condone any act of indiscipline and corrupt practices by any of its Staff.
“Dr Balogun is further advised to immediately honour the invitation of the ICPC to clear himself of the allegations against him.”
