The Commissioner for Higher Education, Professor Nyerovwo Tonukari, locked out Lovette Idisi, Chairman of the College Council, on Friday, due to a dispute over the appointment of a registrar for the College of Physical Education, Mosogar (COPEM) in Delta State.
The situation has sparked tensions at the college, resulting in mutual accusations between the parties involved. Idisi has accused Tonukari of preventing him from accessing his office because of the appointment of a registrar for the college. He alleged that the commissioner was attempting to disrupt the interview process, despite the presence of a quorum consisting seven out of nine statutory members who conducted the interviews.
reports that trouble began on Friday, November 3rd, 2023, when Idisi arrived at his office to find the door locked. Expressing his bewilderment, Idisi stated, 'I am the Chairman of the Council. The Governing Council followed due process and achieved a quorum with seven out of nine members in attendance. 'This entire issue originated from an erroneous letter authored by Prof. Nyerovwo Tonukari, claiming that we did not have a quorum to conduct the interviews.
