Kamal A. Odunjo-Saka, a lecturer at Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), claims he was suspended after exposing alleged embezzlement by TETFund staff of ₦10 million intended for his PhD sponsorship in Cyprus. Odunjo-Saka, enrolled in a PhD programme but faced persistent funding issues due to bureaucratic delays and miscommunication, recently revealed these delays, which triggered a purported witch-hunt by the university leading to his suspension.
The situation sheds light on systemic challenges like accountability within the educational funding process, highlighting the lecturer’s call for intervention from well-meaning Nigerians amidst claims of financial misconduct. Despite his efforts to address funding issues through appropriate channels, allegations were dismissed by the university authorities, shifting focus on his conduct violation rather than the alleged TETFund fraud.
