Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has approved the appointments of Principal Officers for the recently upgraded Bamidele Olumilua University of Science and Technology, Ikere, Ekiti.

The former College of Education in the State  was upgraded to a University status last year after a bill to that effect was passed by the House of Assembly.

The institution was, thereafter, named after a former civilian Governor of old Ondo state, late Bamidele Olumilua.

A statement on Wednesday by the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Fayemi, Yinka Oyebode, said this was in exercise of his power as the Visitor to the University.

“The Governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi has approved the appointment of principal officers to pilot the affairs of the newly approved university.

“They are Prof O. V. Adeoluwa, Vice Chancellor; Mr. Ojo Olurotimi Gbenga, Registrar; Mr. Apata Babatunde Abioye, Bursar; and Mr. C. O.Oyegbaju, Librarian.

“The appointments are with immediate effect.”
