OOU Lecturers Begin Strike Over Unpaid Salaries by adedolapo189(m): 8:02am On Dec 10, 2015 |
The lecturers of the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye, Ogun State on Wednesday began an indefinite strike over nonpayment of their 16 months salaries by the state government. The strike action, which took effect in all the institution’s campuses, followed the resolution of the congress of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, OOU branch, to down tools at its meeting held on Wednesday. The ASUU Chairman, OOU branch, Dr. Deji Agboola, said the lecturers resolved to embark on the strike as the Visitor to the university; the Governing Council and the management had kept sealed lips over their demands. It will be recalled that the lecturers had embarked on a peaceful protest on Monday over the matter. The lecturers, who carried different placards, condemned the poor funding of the OOU, the inherent infrastructural decay and ill-equipped science laboratories in the university. The protest, which lasted for close to two hours, saw the lecturers marching through the institution’s mini- campus at Ago-Iwoye. They also moved outside the school gate to sensitise the community to their plight. They marched through Ita Merin/Igan road, chanting protest and solidarity songs. They had threatened that if nothing was done about their plight, they would go on an indefinite strike. adedolapo189:The lecturers of the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye, Ogun State on Wednesday began an indefinite strike over nonpayment of their 16 months salaries by the state government.
