The VC, who addressed the workers from the foyer of the Senate Building of the school, said his being returned to the office was not by power but by divine intervention.

Ogundipe, who resumed to a rousing welcome by workers of the university, said he saw his recuse from office for about three months as a kind of sabbatical.

He also used the occasion to debunk the rumour that he had compiled a list of who to pinish or sack in the university for not supporting him during his travails.
