LAWGLOBAL HUB Lead Judgment Report

M. A. BELGORE, J.S.C.

Clearly, this is a matter of Master and servant,where master places servant on suspension pending investigation of corruption. Corruption is a serious crime and in the ivory tower, the University, it must not be allowed to linger for too long so as to minimize the damage to the academic atmosphere. This has no bearing on issues of Fundamental Right under the Constitution of 1979 or the one of 1999. To say the least, this delay has militated against prompt resolution of the complaint against the appellant. I find no merit in this appeal it is no more than a voyage of discovery, I therefore dismiss it with N10.000.00 costs to respondent.
