Guy. Shut up there if you don't know anything. Over 30 thousand OAU students can't be bought over with money not to talk of ASUU and NASU members giving him support. You need to see the transformation that this man brought to the institution when he acted as the VC. Graduates were mobilised promptly and Salary the last administration owed NASU was paid immediately.
The charges against him are just the plan of the enemies to get back at him.
Won't forget the row this man played in my mobilisation after my result was delayed by my department for 2 years. If not for him, I would have bone service.
Elujoba. May the almighty God keep you afloat ur enemies and may you laugh last.
Love you sir

Hmmm, that's 9ja for you
