The tenure of the immediate past Provost, Dr Abdullahi A. Ladan, expired on February 4, 2021.
Since there was no formal communication reappointing Dr Ladan for a second tenure, the Deputy Provost of the college, Dr Suleiman Balarabe, is now discharging the duties of the provost.
Government decision
Investigation by
Daily Trust however revealed that the former provost, Dr Ladan, was the one who asked Dr Balarabe “to oversee the affairs of the college” pending the final decision of the federal government on who becomes the next helmsman.
While many staff of the college expressed happiness over the refusal of the federal government to allow Dr Ladan continue as the provost of the college, there is palpable anxiety among the staff that the federal government may rescind its decision to reappoint him.
