A statement by the Chief Information Officer in the Office of Vice Chancellor Foluso Ogunmodede said  Mbachaga’s suspension came after a panel found prima facie evidence against him.

“However, the suspension which was with immediate effect would  pave the way for a five-member committee set up by the Vice-Chancellor to further probe the allegation with a view to getting to the root of the allegation,” the statement said.
