A document revealing the pattern of appointments in Kwara State University KWASU which has been subject of dispute in the past one week has been discovered.
The document shows that the allegation of witch-hunting promoted by a certain group in the university may not be true after all.
It was gathered that in order to follow academic tradition and standard, for the first time in the history of Kwara State University, appointment of Deans of Faculties was democratized.
It was revealed that the decision to subject the appointment of deans to election was taken jointly by the deans and the management headed by the Acting Vice-Chancellor, Professor Shaykh Luqman Jimoh.
In view of this, at the election held during the first week of November 2023, new deans were elected in the various faculties, with five coming from Kwara Central, none from Kwara North and Kwara South.
The Deans for the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology and that of Management and Social Sciences were appointed by the Acting Vice-Chancellor, where the professors in the two faculties declined nomination. This resulted into six deans coming from Kwara Central, one from Kwara North and none coming from Kwara South.
Two candidates from Kwara Central were also appointed Dean School of Postgraduate Studies, and that of Student Affairs, respectively.

This makes the deans coming from Kwara Central to be eight (8) out of 11, one from Kwara North, none from Kwara South and one each from Kogi and Oyo states.
In addition, of the 33 directors of centres and units in the university appointed either by the late Vice-Chancellor, Professor Muhammed Mustapha Akanbi and reappointed by the Acting Vice-Chancellor, 17 are from Kwara Central, 11 from Kwara South, two (2) from Kwara North and three (3) from other states.
Virtually all the appointees by the late Vice-Chancellor were retained, and only 10 fresh appointments and two (2) redeployment were done by the Acting Vice-Chancellor.
Of the 10 new appointments by the Acting Vice-Chancellor, six (6) are from Kwara Central, three (3) from Kwara South, none from Kwara North and one (1) from another state.
Two candidates who are from Kwara Central were redeployed to other centres or units having spent more than eight years in their posts.
