All the Profs appointed by Jonathan when he established the six universities were very competent, the likes of the late Ibidapo Obe that headed Alex ekwueme University at Ikwo Ebonyi state, the legendary Rafindadi at Lokoja..you can name them, those appointments were made based on credibility devoid of tribalism and nepotism, immediately they left, bubu in his nature started appointing people based on man know man,tribalism and nepotism, suddenly corruption became endemic in those schools, if you think this woman is hated, go to ikwo and see how nwajuba is hated..same applies to the guy in otuoke

The difference is clear and the pix explained better.

A good name is always better than riches. I care and take care of my behaviour knowing full well that one day, i will leave the position and the earth itself. The question is, what are you leaving behind?

Managing people to leave such memory in their heart to some extends for a learned adult weeping for your leaving is something to ponder about.

While i will not do things for people to like me, i will however make sure wherever i am, the right thing must be done...

you have said it all.....like you took the words from my mouth...... Truth is, Human beings are naturally wicked. That is why I respect kind people, because it takes the powers of beyond to not succumb to wickedness, oppression and Inhumanity!!

Her type abound other NIGERIAN parastatals....

When will our country people change?!!!

This is ridiculous!
You don't need to scratch your head or go reading literatures why kogi state and their state university is in tatters. The post explains it all. Tribalism. The staff at the Federal University are pissed an outsider is the VC. She launched and commissioned many infrastructural projects. Why didn't you post it here to be objective? Naah, You want to push a narrative. You want to paint a picture. You want to give a dog a bad name so you can hang it. Bull shit!

It was Abraham Lincoln who said "Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing".

I Woke up this morning to news of disturbing scenes at the Federal University Lokoja, one of the six new Federal Universities built from scratch by the Goodluck Administration.

Poster and banners of the outgoing Vice chancellor Prof Angela Miri with unprintable words saturated the scenes while workers armed with brooms and trumpets sang and danced while sweeping her footprints from the University's premesis.

Source: https://www.nairaland.com/6412770/federal-university-lokoja-staff-mock

While watching these unbelievable scenes my mind quickly flashed back to a contrasting scene few years back when another vice chancellor was leaving the same seat at the same University.

That vice chancellor was Professor Abdulmumini Hassan Rafindadi a professor of pathology, with interest in cervical cancer prostate cancer and medicolegal medicine and the pioneer vice chancellor of Federal University, Lokoja, a post he held until February 2016 at the end of his 5-year term.

Those who knew him say he was an administrator with a difference, a man who knew how to manage people and institutions.  According reports his remarkable transformation of virgin land into a beautiful and amiable institution with meager resources, within 5 years left many wondering as to how he was able to achieve such feat


Staff weep as he vacates office

In what appeared to be the first of its kind in Nigeria and an endorsement of his leadership style, members of staff of the Federal University Lokoja, Kogi state couldn’t hide their emotions and wept bitterly and openly as Professor Abdulmumini Hassan Rafindadi left office. The Prof struggled to also hold himself as he waved at staff and students who gathered at the Vice Chancellor’s office to bid him farewell.

Source:

https://www.nairaland.com/2941596/staff-cry-rafindadi-vc-lokoja

Rafindadi and Miri occupied the same office but thier tenures were characterized by two different and distinct outcomes.

Coming at a time when the country is mourning the death  a true servant leader and former Governor of Lagos state Baba Lateef Jakande, it is imperative for those entrusted  with leadership to always remember they will one day leave office, irrespective of how long thier tenure appears to be.

Those who have been saddled with the responsibility of leading should always remember that muzzling the ox when it treads the grain and denying labourers of their worthy wages when one feeds fat on their sweat will always result in this type of treatment.

As Professor Olayemi Akinwumi resumes as the new vice Chancellor of the university, it is hoped that such acrimony will cease as he will bring his wealth of experience and people management to bear in his quest to take one of Nigeria's baby institutions to enviable heights.

Ok. You must be ready to hear APC Buhari lead administration is worst in Nigeria history just to take over power by the PDP but to your utter dismay that same PDP will built deceitfully on evils current APC is accused of, just as APC did to take over power in 2015.

Good that nobody is bringing religion, region or gender in to this. (Hallelujah/ Alhamdulillahi at the end of Prof Diri's "obituary" poster only shows that the "mourners" were muslims and Christians.) A good person is good because s/he is good and a evil person is evil because s/he is evil - not because s/he is a muslim or christian, northerner or southerner, or male or female.

The most difficult gender to work with/for is women. That gender can make life unnecessarily difficult for their subordinates or employee. The worst is, working for a woman in a private establishment...

the different is clear between a man in leadership and a woman in leadership. the truth is most of the Nigeria women are not good in leadership, they carry their family matters to their office and thereby venting it on her staffs.
common head mistress, you would see them misbehaving

Stop being a slowpoke Aruma Oteh, Oknjo, Michelle Obama and Angela Merkel are women

A good name is better, however a country like Nigeria �� where most don't want to abide with proper ethics and do the right thing such illegality is the order of the day.

Time will definitely expose the truth if she is guilty or not.

Government offices is now seen as cash out point. Once you stop anyone you become the most wicked soul. Those that has threaded this path will definitely tell you their experience. We shouldn't shy away from responsibilities of taking ownership whether is for government or private. Cheers

Endorsement by staff does not mean a vc performed in office.

A principled n disciplined boss that always demands the right things from staff are usually hated.
