The management of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, has appealed to members of the academic staff who have not gone for their 2010/2011 annual leave to defer it so the current academic session would not suffer setback.
A release by the Public Relations Officer of the university, Mr Abiodun Olarewaju, said the appeal became necessary because of the complaint received by the Vice-Chancellor, Prof Tale Omole, staff who have been unable to go for their annual leave due to pressure of work occasioned by the grading of scripts and compilation of results.
The PRO said there was no truth in the rumour that OAU had postponed its resumption date, adding that the management appreciated all members of the academic staff for their support and will continue to rely on their cooperation and understanding in getting the university to resume for the 2011 / 2012 academic session and run the calendar smoothly.
Meanwhile, to strengthen the security in the campus, the management of the institution has equipped the security unit of the university with 10 motorcycles.
Speaking during the presentation, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof Tale Omole, advised the officers to be proactive and always be on the alert to foil crime attempt and forestall criminalities around the campus.
He said their prompt actions to any distress call would go a long way in protecting lives and property. Prof Omole also promised to purchase two Toyota Hilux pick-up vans to further enhance the operations of the security outfit and make OAU crime-free.
