Prior to now, the Visitor to the young Federal University Oye Ekiti (FUOYE) directly appointed the first three Vice-Chancellors of the University. As the young University attains the age of 10 years, it has since come into its own, such that the post of Vice-Chancellor will now be filled through the codified and regular statutory processes.
Accordingly, since the post of the Vice-Chancellor of Federal University Oye Ekiti will become vacant by February 2021, the University’s Governing Council in the performance of its statutory duties as provided for in the University Edict, hereby invites interested Academics to forward their applications in respect of this impending vacancy
