Presidency orders VC, registrar of the Fed University of Otuoke to refund overpaid salaries

The Presidency, through the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission, has instructed the Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University, Otuoke, Bayelsa State, Prof. Mobolaji Aluko, to refund over payment of salaries running into millions of naira.
 
The Registrar of the university, David Suowari, was also directed to refundthe sum of N130, 692.71 per month in excess of his due salary.

The over payments were said to have been discovered during the commission’s visit to the institution on May 12, 2015 to carry out an inspection of FUO’s remuneration practices vis-a-vis the extant government’s pay policy.
 
The VC and the registrar were accused of appropriating certain allowances to themselves which were not approved by the government.

These concerns were raised in a letter from the NSIWC to Aluko, signed for the Chairman of the Commission by the Director of Compensation, Chike Ogbechie.
The commission said,
“The findings of the inspection in respect of your institution (Federal University, Otuoke) were as follow:
“The Vice-Chancellor was being paid total emoluments of N1,970,476.76 monthly, whereas he should not earn more than N922,810.23 if he were paid furniture allowance en bloc earlier, or N1,043,176.79 if he were being paid furniture allowance.
“Much of the difference was attributed to certain allowances which were not approved by the government.”
In the case of the registrar, the commission said he was being paid N130,692.71 in excess of his due salary of N502,580.25.
The commission also said the university disaggregated its staff salaries against the government’s policy of pay consolidation.
The NSIWC, therefore, directed the university to stop “the wrongful practices” and comply with relevant rules and rates.
The commission added,
“We hereby direct the vice-chancellor and the registrar to refund the cumulative overpayments made to them.
“You are to report to the commission in writing, your compliance with this directive within four weeks of this letter.”
Prof. Mobolaji Aluko became the Vice-Chancellor of the university in February 2011 and he said (in a text message to our Punch correspondent) that there was neither disaggregation of salaries nor overpayment of salaries.
The vice-chancellor said,
“Rather, pension and health insurance allowances were due to three of us, Diaspora Vice-Chancellors who are on Sabbatical from our foreign universities, and co-paid monthly in naira to us for payment to those foreign universities.
“Without that concession occurring, our own local salaries would have been wiped out completely, and we could not have accepted the job.”
“However, the need for accountability is welcome, and Salaries and Wages Commission will be fully reconciled to the full facts,” the VC stated.

BUHARI TAKES ACTION AGAINST ANYONE IN SOUTH SOUTH AND SOUTH EAST, BUT WHEN IS BUHARI GOING TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST BOKO HARAM SPONSORS THAT ARE WITHIN HIS GOVERNMENT?

NIGERIANS ARE WAITING FOR BUHARI TO JAIL HIS FELLOW HAUSA AND FULANI PEOPLE THAT SPONSORED BOKO HARAM AND HELPED BUHARI INTO POWER.

BUHARI IS ROUNNING AROUND IN CIRCLES AND REFUSING TO DEAL WITH THE MOST BURNING ISSUES: WHO ARE BOKO HARAM SPONSORS? BUHARI HAS TO TELL THE NATION. HE HAS TO PROSECUTE HIS PEOPLE THAT SPONSORED BOKO HARAM.

BEST LIB COMMENTER'S EVER...
So after much consideration, d "classy prestigious clic" decided to come up with this.

Considering the amount of commenter's from different people we are subjected to daily, we couldn't help but narrow it down to five.

These r ever best five commenter's dat sleep and wake up on LIB moreso run d blog wit Linda Ikeji.


1. ROYAL PRIESTHOOD: He is down to earth inspirational and he say it d way it is irrespective of those dat wouldn't lik d truth. Indeed d truth is bitter. I think dis d best word to use for him, he is a blessing to us on LIB wit his numerous and countless sincere comments on LIB! A lot of reader's apr8 his comments which tell d impact and popularity he has on LIB. He sleep and wake up on LIB.


2. DAVIDO'S DRIVER: Some of y'all will be like, wht is he typing. Alwaz first to comment in most of d post's making little or sense. His comments are alwaz one or two words avoiding to mak any blunder's for all to lik and notice him by all means. Most times he takes it far wit his madness of huge space leaving. He is ever consistent and persistent on LIB though dis dude can b tribalistic and annoying. He practically live on LIB.


3. LWKMD_NAIJA: His comments r either here or there but he is alwaz on LIB as he practically live and feed on d blog wit his copy of "Linda observe" frm Juliet Iwuno. Often times he is first to comment wit insignificant words dat mak no sense but we can not rule out his commitments of b on d blog 24/7.


4. ABOKIDAWARRIBOY: Alwaz hypocritical and delusional wit his comments which leave his reader's confused. He earned b among d ever LIB commenter's wit his commitment on LIB. His comments tells d type of local champion he truly his and author of confusion on LIB.


5: JULIET IWUNO: Dis is d one and only "Linda take note" on LIB and "SDK take note" on SDK blog which have earned her 2b among d best five commenter's ever on LIB. She surely grace it wit her controversial comments and she doesn't hide d fact dat she goes around blog's acting lik a "corporate beggar wit no true loyalty or allegiance.


So there you have it! Our top 5 best LIB commenter's ever. U don't hav to agree with it for dis is what mak us unique. Our views should differ but wht mak d bigger person is your ability to share your ur own opinion without sounding like a street tout.


Oh! Not forgetting to include "D WORST LIB COMMENTER" EVER:

Dis goes to d clique called "CLASSY CHIC CLIC" on LIB:

Classy Chic Clic or who so ever u r, r fool's and d biggest moron's ever on LIB. Ur views and opinions concerning d "Worst commenter's on LIB" r so pathetic, senseless, narrow minded, out of place and above all very useless dat it doesn't worth d attentions on LIB.

Bunch of jobless idiots dat don't comments on LIB but r quick to judge others dat commit themsef regularly to dis prestigious blog. Its ur clic dat goes around to insult d owner of d blog in disguise of anonymous and insult people on d blog dat mak significant comments and express their views on d blog since u don't respect commenter's views and u want them to mak comments dat wil suit ur pathetic and useless ego d way u so desire.

Two good words for u@Classy Chic Clic, GET LOST!


Sweet kisses, and luv to all LIB reader's... One luv!!!

Mobolaji Aluko, one of the most hypocritical and dishonest person I have ever met.
.
This is the guy that insulted Mrs Iweala-Okonjo during her first tenure as Finance minister under OBJ for accepting a higher salary than other ministers. He criticized her for accepting her salary in dollars. He searched for some photos of her family house in the USA and published them online claiming she bought the house when she was already a minister. But it turned out the house was one she had bought with her Doctor of a husband in credit and had already finished paying for it before she was called by OBJ to abandon her World Bank job and serve this nation.
.
Now, look at the situation this man accepted to finds himself in. Earning almost 2 million naira a month when Osun workers earning 20 000 naira per month have not been paid since 9 straight months. Dia-riz god true true !!!

This is undoutedly, witchhunting, witchhunting and witchhunting. When you start probing the likes of Alakija, a former tailor (to the Obasanjo's) and high school holder, but now a billionaire cum oil magnate, then the citizens will know the fight against graft is real. Tell us, how does a former tailor become one of Naija's/Africa's richest? Of course, by fraudulently obtaining oil blocks meant for citizens and selling it off for private profit. By the way, Alakija is one of many in the country. Why, don't you start there if your presidency means business?

Your president N member of house of reps are earning so much more in salaries and allowances eg newspaper, furniture, hardship allowance and he thinks he has the right to order such. This man is such a hypocrite
