The Governing Council of the Federal College of Education (Technical), Gombe, has approved the dismissal of four senior officers of the institution.
Our Correspondent reports that those dismissed are the Registrar, Alhaji Umar Bello; the College Librarian, Yusuf Aliyu; the Director of Works and Services, Mr. Muhammad Malam.
An internal member of the Governing Council representing the Non-Teaching Staff Congregation, Ibrahim Shehu completes the number.
Mr Dahiru Gurama, the Acting Director, Public Relations and Protocol at the College disclosed this in a press statement issued in Gombe on Tuesday.
Gurama stated that their dismissal was as a result of “gross misconduct.”
He said that the decision was taken at the 7th meeting of the Governing Council held on 31st January, 2026, at the headquarters of the National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE), Abuja.
“The dismissals followed earlier suspensions and were based on the findings and recommendations of a fact-finding committee.
“The Committee was set up by the Federal Ministry of Education, as well as the Governing Council’s Investigative committee, which indicted the officers on various counts of gross misconduct.”
Gurama, however, stated that the Council has approved the appointment of Mallam Haruna Ayuba, the most senior Deputy Registrar, as Acting Registrar to ensure continuity in the administration of the College.
