A Federal Government-owned University, Modibbo Adama University (MAU) in Yola, the State Capital, has dismissed three professors in its employment for alleged plagiarism.
The Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Abdullahi Tukur, who spoke at the Pre-Convocation press briefing in Yola to mark the 28th Convocation Ceremony for the 2022/2023 academic session of the University, said that the three dismissed professors were found wanting and were therefore sacked.
“The academicians were found guilty by an internal investigative panel set up by the University council.”
He said that stiff measures await any erring staff and student who may want to breach the rules and regulations guiding the institution.
Professor Tukur called on the Federal Government to review the Treasury Single Account (TSA) policy, describing it as a huge challenge militating against operations of Public Universities in the Country.
