AN EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT OF HOW PROF. ALESE GOOFED AND GOT BEATEN UP BY THE POLICE
Members of JAC FUTA have been on a peaceful picketing in the last eight weeks calling for the removal of the VC of the university who is under investigation by EFCC.

Prof. Alese being the stooge of the embattled VC has taken so many steps to ensure that he supports his embattled master with various moves he's taken with FUTASU EXCO since the beginning of this peaceful and lawful picketing. He started by forcing the students body to release a press statement in support of the embattled VC.

On the 21st December, 2016 the members of FUTA JAC were picketing at their usual venue when their attention was drawn to the loud sound coming from the of office of Directorate of Student Affairs that is very close to their picketing arena, in the bid to see what was happening some members approached the office only to see some students trying to break into the building with hammer and strong iron rod.

The students who were asked what their motive was and who sent them were unable to give a convincing answer, this arouse suspicion of the people, they were immediately arrested and handed over to the police who asked the boys to kneel down. They were not beaten or molested in any way.

Prof. Alese in his bid to cause confusion, rancour and violence on the campus had earlier called and lied to the commissioner of police to inform "HIM" that some students were being beaten by FUTA JAC members and the commissioner then gave order to the mobile police force on the campus to immediately swing in to action and arrest anybody at the scene. Prof. Alese showed from nowhere in less than 5 minutes after the arrest of his boys and walked into the midst of the arrested students and police with his "SHOULDER PAD" intact and said the students should stand up. On seeing his action, the police approached him and slapped him several times and squeezed him into the back of their vehicle asking him ''what audacity did you have to ask the person I arrested to stand up''.
All these happened in the presence of the DPO on duty in FUTA.

Prof. Alese should stop spreading lies to cover up his gaffe.

PROF. ALESE'S AND FUTASU EXECUTIVE SENSELESS ACT.
It is no more a news that Prof. Alese and some FUTASU executives were beaten and arrested by the police yesterday as a result of their nefarious act of trying to use the students union executive members to break the door of the main entrance of the office of the Directorate of Student Affairs and claiming that the act was perpetrated by Joint Action Committee (JAC) of Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA).
It suffice to say at this juncture without mincing words that the office the Directorate of Student Affairs was locked by Prof. Alese after he left office on Monday 20th December, 2016 only for him to return on Wednesday 21st December, 2016 to the same office to break into it with the intention of tagging the JAC of FUTA as being the perpetrator.
JAC FUTA make bold to ask the Dean of Student affairs the reason why he has sent the FUTASU executives who are not CARPENTERS to proceed to be breaking the main gate of the Directorate of Student Affairs office without notifying the security personnel on duty at that time and without the physical presence of the Dean himself. This action calls for thorough investigation as it can encourage breaking into offices by students since the Dean of Students has encouraged and approved of the action.
It is important to state categorically here also that the executives of FUTASU who are the leaders of students on campus stooped so low to be used as CARPENTERS and errand boys to perpetrate nefarious acts on campus. This further confirms that the FUTASU executives are puppets in the hand of Dean of Students affairs and are acting scripts he wanted them to act.
JAC FUTA salute the members that saw FUTASU EXECUTIVES while breaking the door of the office of the Directorate of Student Affairs and responded to the call by the security personnel on duty and help in the arrest of the culprits and safe handing over of them to the police without molestation and harassement. THE SECURITY OF FUTA IS OUR COLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES IRRESPECTIVE OF OUR DIFFERENCES.
JAC FUTA is resolute on its demand and until the needful is done, we shall not succumb to any form of harassment, intimidation, molestation and antics of the embattled Vice Chancellor and his cohorts. We demand the immediate removal of Prof. Adebiyi Daramola who is under investigation for monumental corruption and until this is achieved the members of JAC FUTA will not return to their duty post.
We shall continue to be PEACEFUL, MATURE and be ORGANISED in our picketing without damage to government properties. CONTINUA, VICTORIA ASCERTA.

To:
President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR
Sir,
FUTA IMPASSE: A CLEAR INDICATION OF LACK OF ENTHUSIAST TO EDUCATION SECTOR IN NIGERIA BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, REACTION FROM PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI IS REQUIRED

1. The students of the Federal University of Technology Akure can no longer be a suffering grass while two elephants are fighting.

2. The crisis rocking the best University of Technology is not only a dent to the university herself, staff and the students but also a national embarrassment to the whole nation.

3. The crisis that has so far paralysed both the administrative and academic activities also nearly stopped our graduating students from getting mobilized for this year youth service. We believe this is due enough to have attracted or gain the attention of the visitor of the varsity (President Muhammadu Buhari). But to our greatest surprise, the President attitude to education is not very clear and visible, with his attitude to FUTA crisis and other varsities that are under lock and key.

4. Nevertheless, we must appreciate Hon. Olowokere the, Hon parliamentarian representing AKURE NORTH/SOUTH federal constituency for bringing up the issue on the floor of the house of representative.

5. The effort of the Hon is well acknowledged and also some other high profile personalities which do not exclude the DEJI of Akure Kingdom.

6. But it is so pitiable and unfortunate that the efforts put together by those mentioned above could not restore normalcy to the most peaceful campus that had now turn to battleground between the university vice chancellor and the staff of the University.

7. It has now gotten to a stage where the students must come out in clear terms to get our future back from those that are working relentlessly to ensure the fulfillment of each student doesn't come to manifestation.

8. We cannot sit idle while the leaders of the nation and other concerned education stakeholders (NUC, MINISTER OF EDUCATION) has turned a deaf hear to FUTA crisis. They behave like everything is well with FUTA and in other universities across the nation while our university is in comatose and is urgently in need of a good surgeon that will carry out the operation required to revive it.

9. We at this moment call on the President, to as a matter of urgency look into the crisis that had put the hope of more than 15,000 students to hopelessness and our future has now been cloud computed.

10. The visitor attention is the best and the most appropriate things needed to salvage the impasse rocking our campus(FUTA).

11. The President must also put into consideration that if we really must get out of the economic crisis rocking our country, then the educational crisis must be fixed.

12. We appeal and urge you to give more attention to the education sector and particularly the Federal University of Technology Akure as technology is one of the needed tools to drive our economic and FUTA being the best University of Technology must be given proper attention to all issues that arise or comes from there.

13. The effort of the ministry of education is not enough and as thus more proactive measure must be taken to bring about a quick solution to the impasse.

14. We once again call on the Federal government through the Hon minister of education to put all things in place to ensure peace return to FUTA.

15. we must not but also call on the two parties involved in this crisis to shelve their sword and allow normalcy to visit us once again in FUTA.

16. The students union equally wish to alert the Federal government, the vice chancellor, and the protesting staff unions to be ready and prepared to accommodate us when we begin to show our displeasure on the street.

17. If our demand is not met within a period of 7 working days, we shall not hesitate to paralyse all activities within Akure metropolis.

18. Motorist and commuters should hold the Federal government accountable for any difficulties and hardship our demonstration may cause to them.

19. The union must at this time appreciate the patience exhibited by our union members but such patience is becoming too painful and anybody that touches the tail of a hungry dog must be ready to take anti-rabies injection.

20. The Union wishes to inform the students to be on a red alert and also must be willing to come back to school as we will not hesitate to direct all students back on campus if all arsenal at our disposal has been exhausted.

21. Get yourself prepared to take your future, our future back from those that want to put us into a life jail of ignorance and illiteracy.

22. As it is said that an enlightened and educated mind is always difficult to be enslaved.

We refuse to be enslaved and as thus we must resume.

Thanks.

Signed;
FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY AKURE, STUDENTS' UNION

ALL STUDENTS OF THE FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, AKURE.

*RE: Why I was beaten and arrested, Prof. Alese (FUTA Dean of Student Affair)*

Today, it's clearer to me why criminals are in the habit of justifying his/her wrong doing.

By my judgement Prof. Kayode Alese is not fit to occupy the position of Dean of Student Affairs unit in FUTA and by extension I expected him to bury his head in shame for that criminal and nefarious acts he perpetrated alongside FUTA SUG Executives before the long arms of the law catch up with them on Wednesday, 21st December, 2016. But Alese still raised his ugly head to justify his dastard act. What a shame

Alese should explain to the whole Nigerians whether those pictures and video are true or not. Pictures showing him and FUTA SUG Executives *(Alese's Carpenters)* with claw bar, hammer and other tools used to break into the building. Also where Police bundled him and the student Union Executive into police van, is it not true?

The Dean of Student Affairs is expected to be an individual of good characters, moral conduct and values worthy of emulation. But alas, the qualities FUTA students get to emulate from Prof. Alese include internet FRAUD as four, FUTA students were arrested by EFCC for internet fraud recently. Burgle houses and offices as demonstrated again by Dean himself.

Do you know on Friday, 23rd December, 2016 two FUTA students were arrested by police in Apatapiti, FUTA area with loaded pistol (see pictures below).

One would ask what kind of Dean is heading Student Affairs unit because this trend of events call for serious concerns of stakeholders.
*Pictures won't lie*

I've received calls both within and outside this nation asking what kind of *CRIMINAL* we have as the Dean of student affairs? It really saddened my heart.

Based on these calls I'm forced to write this and call the attention of well meaning stakeholders in FUTA to the kind of moral decadence among our students.

I want to believe my Readers are people of high intelligent and good sense of judgement. Please let's ask ourselves

_(1) Prof. Alese said he sent Carpenters to break into Student Affairs Building *in his absence*._

_(2) Are those arrested truly Carpenters? or FUTASU Executives are now Carpenters?_

_(3) Despite heavy security presence on campus, Nigerian Police both regular and MOPOL, Civil Defence, SSS. Why Prof. Alese asked his Carpenters (FUTASU Executive) to break into the building without any of these securities in attendance_

_(4) The building consist of many offices and not that of Alese alone. Please don't you think they are up to something since there are valuables in other offices._

_(5) Lastly, who locked Student Affairs Building? Prof. Alese or JAC? All I know was that Prof Alese come to office almost everyday since the crisis started on 6th October, 2016. Please why was that particular building just locked on 21st December, 2016._

I think we should look beyond alleged JAC alone even the person alleging (Prof. Alese) is a suspect under this circumstance. I leave the rest to right thinking Nigerians.

The allegations against Mr. Mathew Fayiwole, Mrs. Abifade, Mr. Osmond and others are frivolous because the pictures and video only show the police doing their job or Alese expected the police to allows him and his FUTASU Carpenters cart away things in the building because he is a professor?

*To the student Union Executives*. I want you to know that right from time immemorial, staff Unions and Management do have issues and STUDENTS shouldn't allow any of the parties to drag them to the middle of the scene as Management did in this case. I advise you to always remain neutral in issues like this and appeal to both parties. They are your parents and contributed to your progress in life rather than insulting them the way you are doing.

As I drop my pen, I wish to call on EFCC to issue certificate of clearance to VC (Adebiyi Daramola) as he reported at the Senate meeting, Management Advisory Committee meeting and Congregation meeting that EFCC has absolved him of any wrongdoings. If otherwise, EFCC should expedite action in the investigation. This will lay to rest this ongoing crisis in FUTA.

I would not condemned JAC in totality even though JAC also have some shortcomings in the course of this struggle. If the allegations are true and blow whistle as they did then they deserve commendations for saving our University and the Nation from the claws of corrupt Vice Chancellor. I also wish to say that *TRUTH* is *SACROSANCT* and we must all embrace TRUTH in the interest of our University and our dear Nation Nigeria.

below is how the vice chancellor of FUTA, Prof. Biyi Daramola spent the internal generated revenue for buying cows for the friend of the university, payment of pro chancellor daughter's wedding, build a mansion worth three hundred of fifty million naira (N350,000,000.00)

people like this should not be allowed in our community especially in an academic environment, if we desired a corruption free nation in this country
