There are a lot of grey areas in this Prof Joash Ojo Amupitan's CV as put forward in the Statehouse Press Release signed by Mr Bayo Onanuga. Let me speak to just a few of them for now: 1. He was born in 1967. There's no problem in that. 2. 'After completing primary and secondary education', he attended Kwara state Polytechnic... from 1982 to 1984. Note: we are neither told the names of the primary and secondary schools he attended, nor the time lines of his attendance. Moreover, by 1982 when he was said to have attended the Kwara state Polytechnic; he was just 15. How did he do it back then? Maybe if we have the details of his primary and secondary schools attendance, we would have better understanding. Additionally, what did he study at the Polytechnic? 3. He attended University of Jos 1984-1987 to study law. How did he get a law degree in Nigeria within 3 years? Law is 5 years. 4. He got his PhD in 2007. But he became the Head (of Department) of Public Law 2006-2008, and Dean of the Law Faculty 2008-2014. That means that he became the Head of Department before earning his PhD, and the Dean of faculty one year after his PhD. How did these happen in a federal university, not even in a mushroom private university? I have a fair understanding of the academic. Such things don't happen. I believe the people who packaged this CV owe us more explanation of the missing links in the CV. 'Dayo Osifeso, PhD Lagos Mainland
