Fasina said he would not be intimidated by Ogunwole's position and claimed he intended to challenge him through legal and media channels.
A leaked audio recording purportedly featuring former Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), Prof. Abayomi Fasina, has captured him threatening to “legally tie the hands” of the institution’s current Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Joshua Ogunwole, while accusing the university management and governing council of failing to protect his interests.
Fasina, who is now a non-career ambassador, was heard making the remarks during a conversation with one Engr. Shobowale, another FUOYE figure described as his ally.
In the audio obtained by SaharaReporters, Fasina expressed anger over Ogunwole’s alleged failure to write him a congratulatory letter following his appointment, and accused the university’s governing council of failing to compel the incumbent Vice-Chancellor to do so.
He also discussed the suspension and disciplinary proceedings involving some university officials, alleging that Ogunwole had removed people considered loyal to him.
