Dr. Olusegun Ajiboye, the chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities,ASUU, in the University of Ibadan, has confirmed that stories which made the rounds on Saturday, that the National Executive Council, NEC, would hold an emergency meeting in Kano, were false.
Ajiboye was speaking in an interview on Diamond FM, University of Ibadan and stated that no meeting was scheduled for today, as they were still in the middle of a seven-day morning, which was declared in honour of the late Professor Festus Iyayi, a former national chairman of the Union.
It would be recalled that Iyayi lost his life in a fatal crash, on his way to Bayero University, Kano, where members ofASUUwere to meet and reach a final decision, on whether to continue with the strike or accept the federal government’s offer. FOR HOW LONG WE WANT WAIT ASUU NA WE KILL AM?
