There seems to be no end in sight to crisis rocking the Federal Polytechnic, Ede, Osun State following a purported vote of no confidence passed on the reactor of the institution.
Members of the Academic Board has resulted to passing the vote following a rowdy session at the board meeting on Friday.
Also, rising from an emergency Congress held on the development, the Association of Staff Union of Polytechnic, Ede Chapter said, they have upheld the decision of the Academic Board.

Doctor John Adekolawole who stated this while speaking with Journalists on the purported ‘Vote of No Confidence’ said he has never been found culpable of any gross misconduct that could have warranted his suspension.
He said he is not averse to dialogue for the sake of academic activities of students and sanity in the system.

That’s not fair? They did not consider plight of the students and their parents who paid the tuition for them.
