NANS opposes another ASUU strike

THE National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has warned against any attempts by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to  again embark on a solidarity strike over the re-appointment of Professor Barineme Fakae, acting Vice Chancellor of the River State University of Science of Technology (RSUST).

NANS President, Comrade Dauda Muhammed, in a statement in Abuja on Sunday, lamented that students were always at the receiving end of  such a strike.

He also noted that the strike would further disrupt the already disjointed academic calendars in universities.

The crisis in the university started when Governor Rotimi Amaechi re-appointed Fakae as acting vice chancellor of the university, but was immediately opposed by the academic staff of the university.

ASUU recently embarked on a day solidarity strike in all the  universities, but the issue has not been resolved.
