It would be recalled that Mr. Tella was appointed by Ogun State Governor ,Senator Ibikunle Amosun, October 3, 2017 after the erstwhile Rector, Professor Oludele Itiola was asked to proceed on terminal leave by the governor.
Controversy trails the appointment of Mr Tella following his alledged refusal to make his educational status to the school .
This develooment has fuelled the insinuations that Mr. Tella is not qualified to lead the polytechnic which has no fewer than 55 PhD holders ,whereas he was said to have been a high school teacher before his current appointment .
Meanwhile, all efforts made by Platformtimes to unravel the academic background of Mr. Tella proved abortive.
It should be noted that the polytechnic despite that the Polytechnic has over 55 PHD holders , it is not certain if the new Rector has a Masters degree.
The erstwhile Rector of the polytechnic, Professor Itiola was before his appointment in 2013, a Professor of Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical technology at the University of Ibadan.
An unconfirmed report has it that the appointment of Mr Tella who was believed to be a secondary school teacher was to provoke protest by the workers in the Polytechnic which may prompt the closure of the school.
