In this paper, we treat the following problem: Given a stable Gani-type person-
flow model and assuming no negative recruitment, what recruitment distribution at the
$n$-step is capable of generating a staff-mix that closely follows the desired structure?
We relate this problem to the challenge of universities in Nigeria towards attaining the
desired academic staff-mix by rank specified by the National Universities Commission
(NUC). We formulate a population-dynamic model consisting of aggregate-fractional
flow balance equations within a discrete-time Markov chain framework for the system.
We use MATLAB as a convenient platform to solve the system of equations. The utility
of the model is illustrated by means of academic staff flows in a university-faculty setting
in Nigeria.
