Below are the latest updates:
1. End lingering ASUU strike, group tasks FG
Academic Frontier Initiative (AFI), a non-partisan organisation, has called on the Federal Government to urgently meet the demands of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) in order to re-open federal universities across the country.
ASUU embarked on industrial action eight months ago following the non-implementation of the 2009 Agreement, 2019 Memorandum of Action, Arrears of Earned Academic Allowance (EAA), revitalisation funds, among other issues.
2. ASUU accuses FUOYE VC of plans to impose his anointed DVC as successor
The lingering crisis between Federal University, Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has taken another dimension, as the Union accused the outgoing Vice Chancellor, Prof. Kayode Soremekun, of clandestine plans to impose his Deputy Vice Chancellor, Prof. Abayomi Fasina, as his successor.
The Union said Prof. Soremekun had allegedly been running the university like a private entity and promoting culture of ethnicity, nepotism, financial recklessness and abridgement of due process for personal aggrandizement.
ASUU said Prof. Fasina who allegedly absconded from the Ekiti State University (EKSU) in 2015 and collected double salaries running into a sum of N3.4 million from the two institutions for six months lacks the requisite integrity and moral qualities to be appointed a vice chancellor.
