The staff verification exercise organised by Osun State Government for its employees was yet again disrupted on Friday, as staff members of the Osun State University, who were being verified, accused the Consultant in charge of molestation.

On arrival at the venue of the exercise, being held at the Centre for Black Culture and Understanding, Osogbo, the verification had been disrupted, as the staff members at the premises threatened not to continue with the verification.

It was the second disruption that the verification would experience at the same venue, as the exercise was also suspended on the day Judiciary staff were to be verified, following an allegation of verbal abuse against the consultant.

Speaking on behalf of the staff of the university, the Secretary,Academic Staff Union of the University, UNIOSUN chapter, Dr. Damilare Adekomi, accused the Consultant, Sa’adat Bakrin-Ottun, of calling a professor a bastard.

Adekomi also said Bakrin-Ottun, while the exercise lasted tormented and verbally abused staff of the university, lowering their status.

He further said, “Staff members were humiliated, tormented, were verbally abused. That is not supposed to be. Staff members of the Osun State University are human beings and should be accorded that respect.

“How on earth would the consultant address a professor as a bastard?That is the height of it. I can’t even address my student as a bastard. How much more a Profession? Humiliations were meted out on the nonacademic staff of the university this morning. The same persisted till the moment she walked out on us,: he added. (The PUNCH)
