STRIKE: Kaduna Varsity Lecturers Reject Resumption Date, Says School Management Not ASUU Mouthpiece

Post Date : May 3, 2022

 

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Kaduna State University (KASU) branch, has said they will not resume academic activities, until the Federal Government resolve all grievances with the national body of the union.

This is coming after the management of the institution last week issued a circular stating that full academic activities resume on 9th May, 2022.

In a statement jointly signed by the Chairman, Dr Peter Adamu, and Assistant Secretary, Dr Akos Ibrahim, in Kaduna at the weekend,

According to the lecturers, “the attention of the union was drawn to a purported circular trending on social media platforms stating that KASU Management has pulled out of the current roll-over strike action declared by ASUU.

“Specifically, the memo dated April 26, 2022, directed all members of staff and students to resume academic activities by Monday, May 9, 2022.

“It is imperative at this point to clarify this and properly inform and educate the public that ASUU-KASU dissociates itself from the purported circular released by the university management.

“It purely violates the position of the union in the current struggle.”

The lecturers stressed that the management of the university is not the mouthpiece of the Union and cannot speak on behalf of the union, adding that parents and guardians Re advised not to allow their children to resume for now until the current roll-over strike action is suspended.
