Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, FUNAAB, Friday said it has reached a decision to recall all 23 sacked members of staff of the institution.
The university’s governing council had recently sacked 23 of its staff following allegations of stealing, absconding from duty and willful disrespect to constituted authority.

The Head of the Directorate of Public Relations of the institution, Emi Alawode, in a statement released in Abeokuta, stated that the decision to recall the sacked workers was taken following series of appeals from within and outside the university community.
“Each of the 23 members of staff concerned, should, within 48 hours, send a Letter of Appeal to the Secretary, Council Committee on Investigation of the Lingering Industrial Unrest and Tension, Acting Registrar’s Office between Friday, December 16th And Monday, December 19th 2016,” the statement read in part.
