In the termination letter dated Sept 15, 2020 and signed by the registrar, it read: “you will recall that you were engaged in an inappropriate behaviour and poorly managed relationship with your former student.
“This act embarrassed and tarnished the image of your employer, The Polytechnic Ibadan.

“After a careful consideration of the above issue, the Governing Council found you guilty as your actions and activities amount to misconduct.
