The University of Lagos branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has restated its commitment to the ongoing strike embarked on by the union.
It also debunked speculation that its branch had called off
the strike.
A statement signed on Tuesday by the Chairperson of the
branch, Dele Ashiru, read in part, “The attention of the leadership of
ASUU-UNILAG has been drawn to a fake and dubious news purporting that
‘ASUU-UNILAG chapter gives up for the first time, votes for suspension of
strike.’
“This is to inform the general public that the strike in
UNILAG is still in force and there is no threat to it whatsoever.
“ASUU-UNILAG is convinced that the strike action is a just
and patriotic struggle to save the public university system in Nigeria from
imminent collapse.”
ASUU had on Monday, declared an indefinite strike after its
National Executive Meeting.
