Prof. Rasheed reportedly submitted his resignation letter six weeks ago, but kept the news secret until late last week when he opened up to his staff.Another source in the commission noted that his resignation was not connected to corruption allegation nor ill health, but his desire to return to the classroom to continue his academic work.
