The Academic Staff Union of University Adekunle Ajasin University branch today joined their colleagues in all public universities in Nigeria in speaking against the unlawful dismissal of ASUU members by the managements of Lagos State University (LASU) Ojo, Kogi State University (KSU) Ayingba, and Ebonyi State University, (EBSU) Abakaliki at a peaceful rally staged on the University campus.
While addressing the peaceful rally that took place at the branch Secretariat, the Chairperson of the branch Comrade Bolu Oshodi condemned in strong terms the ploy by the managements of the three Universities to silence the voices of the people.
Comrade Oshodi who appealed to all and sundry to prevail on the managements of LASU, KSU and EBSU to recall the illegally sacked comrades stated that allowing this to go on unchecked will affect the morale of other members of staff in the three Universities.
The ASUU-AAUA Chairperson also brought to the notice of the public that some ASUU members are also facing one victimization or the other in their Universities.
According to him such Universities include: Chukwuemaka Odumegwu Ojukwu University (COOU), Anambra State, Ambrose Alli University Ekpoma (AAUE), Edo State and Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO), Imo State.
The Chairperson stressed the need to end all forms of victimizations of ASUU-members in all Universities and called for the immediate reinstatement of all sacked ASUU members in LASU, KSU and EBSU.
