The Ogun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has
approved the dismissal of the state chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Akeem Ambali, his vice and the state chairman
of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, Dare Ilekoya.
On the suspension list were no fewer than 18 others. Those
affected were mostly teachers under the umbrella of the NUT.
These were recommendations contained in a report of a panel
of inquiry set up to investigate the alleged misconduct of executive members of
the NUT on the 2016 World Teachers Day celebration, held on the 5th of October,
at the NUT Hall, Kuto, Abeokuta.
The officials of the union were said to have been suspended
for their roles in the conduct of the celebration.
The recommendations of the panel signed by the Head of
Service, Sola Adeyemi, was approved by the state government for immediate implementation.
Our correspondent gathered
that the state government set up an administrative panel of inquiry to
look into complaints received from concerned members of the public against the
affected officers for their alleged involvement “in various acts of misconduct
and contravention of extant regulations during the celebration.”
The NLC chairman, was until his dismissal a deputy director,
Community and Social Development, Sagamu Local Government Area of the state.
He was accused to have made inflammable and scandalous
remarks against the state government, which could cause breach of peace in the
state.
