BENNIN- AN unemployed graduate, Mr. Omoyibo
Emmaunuel has dragged the Federal University of
Petroleum Resource Effurun (FUPRE) before a
Federal High Court in Warri, Delta State over the
non publication of the results of an interview
conducted by the institution seeking for
employment.
He also pray the court to compel the institution to
publish the results of applicants “who participated
in the written examinations into various vacant
positions”.
He said he was seeking the reliefs under the
Freedom of Information
Act, 2011 and the Federal Character Act.
Emmanuel said it was expedient on the University
to publish the examination results; having
published the vacant positions on some national
dailies on May 21, 2013.
He lamented the “inconvenience, he and other
applicants who came from all the nooks
and crannies of Nigeria to participate in the
examinations on 21st November, 2013”.
The applicant in the suit filed by his counsel, K. C.
Wisdom Esq. and made available to newsmen in
Benin City noted that the institution has refused to
release the examination
results “despite repeated demands”.
He therefore urged the court for a declaration that
the results be published and made available to him
within seven days of the receipt of the court
process
The applicant also sought for an order that the
comprehensive list/interview panel records of
current staff (including indigenous staff of Delta
State) of the University between 1st January 2014
to date should be produced.
Besides, he prayed that the criteria and
comprehensive guidelines for determining eligibility
for employment in the University; being a Federal
Government Owned University should also
be produced”.
