1. The ASUU FUTO committee set up by FUTO to exonerate Pantami of professorial fraud was carefully handpicked without the input of the ASUU FUTO congress. One member who had a moral conscience declined his nomination to serve on the committee.

2. Three deputy vice chancellors intimidated ASUU FUTO congress by their presence at a meeting where Pantami’s issue was discussed, ensuring that they issued that absolute disgrace that deodorized his professorial fraud.

3. ASUU FUTO members were against the Pantamized professorial fraud but were scared of speaking out for fear of victimization. Only two young academics spoke out publicly against it.

4. After accepting his fraudulent professorial appointment and claiming that he would resume duties at FUTO on March 31, 2021, he has never set foot on FUTO and “never came for documentation.” So, technically, he isn’t a FUTO employee. Also note that he "accepted" his "appointment" months before it was offered.

5. Pantami has no office in the Department of Cyber Security, and the HOD has never seen him.

6. Contrary to FUTO’s tradition where a committee of deans examines professorial appointments, only one Professor G.A. Chukwudebe examined Pantami’s application. But Chukwudebe is NOT a professor of cyber security; he is a professor of electrical engineering!

7. Pantami was “promoted” (yes, PROMOTED) from Reader to Professor even though he was never a Reader anywhere in the world. He was Lecturer I at ATBU and an early career Assistant Professor (equivalent to Lecturer I) at the Islamic University of Madinah.

8. His “promotion” is “contrary to the decision of Council as communicated to Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim which indicated that he was appointed and not promoted.”

9. He was assigned a PhD student to co-supervise in September, months after he became a “professor,” although FUTO requires PhD supervision prior to appointment or promotion to professorship.

10. Pantami has not met the minimum requirements of the job ad to which he applied since he doesn’t have up to 12 years of post-PhD experience.

11. Pantami’s articles were never subjected to a plagiarism check, which has been a requirement for promotion to professorship at FUTO since 2018.

12. There’s no evidence that Pantami is an expert in cybersecurity (his PhD is in management from a business school), and he has hidden his CV from public access, indicating that “something is being covered up.”

13. As a tenured staff of FUTO who is not on an official leave of absence or on a sabbatical leave, Pantami does not attend mandatory meetings such as senate meetings, faculty board meetings, academic board meetings, etc.

14. Although Pantami claimed he would teach FUTO students virtually, he has never done so, and FUTO doesn’t even have the facilities for virtual teaching.

15. Pantami’s name does not, in fact, appear on the schedule of courses to be taught at FUTO, showing clearly that he only wants the title but not the job of a professor.

16. Promotion and appointment to the rank of professor typically takes a long time at FUTO (and many qualified FUTO employees are still waiting in line) but Pantami’s was concluded in just three months!

17. ASUU members who participated in Pantami's professorial fraud should be suspended from the union for a year, and the VC, Nnenna Oti, should be suspended from the union indefinitely.

In 2008, Dr. Ibrahim changed his name from Malam Ali Isa Ibrahim to Malam Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami.

Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari allowed him to pick up the job without payment.

His PhD Certificate and other available documents did not indicate his area of specialization.

Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami has a poor record of service at his former place of work at ATBU as evidenced by several queries and caution bordering on negligence of duty.

All documents and records in the custody of FUTO related to Pantami did not bear the name Pantami. This is absurd since he added Pantami to his name in 2008.

The FUTO Committee claimed that Dr. Pantami was assigned a course to teach and he will use the virtual means. Findings show that FUTO does not have facilities for online teaching and classes.

There is no document indicating that he is an expert on CyberSecurity. His CV and the report establishing his prima facie case and his external assessor's report all remain hidden till date.

Dr. Pantami has had two paid jobs before. After his PhD in 2014, he took up a job as Assistant Professor (equivalent to Senior Lecturer here) at the University in Medinah whilst still under the services of ATBU. He got approval for a fellowship between 2010 to 2013 with the conditions from ATBU to serve twice the duration of the fellowship. This he did not keep by resigning in 2015. He intend to repeat same.
