EKSU Chapter of ASUU Votes to Continue Strike

Ololade Adeyanju/

Ekiti State University (EKSU) chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has resolved to continue with the ongoing strike declared the union.

The decision, which was taken at the end of the chapter’s congress held today in Ado-Ekiti, is at variance with yesterday’s announcement by the institution’s management that academic activities will resume on August 29.

A statement signed by the chairman of ASUU, EKSU chapter, Dr. K.K. Arogundade, says that the proposals by the federal government to end the strike “remain unrealistic and appear more like white-elephant promises.”
