Lautech Lectures Vow To Continue Strike

Barely hours after the management of the Ladoke Akintola University (LAUTECH) directed students to resume full academic activities, the lecturers have vowed to continue with their strike.

The aggrieved lecturers in a circular obtained by Premium Times said they will not return to classrooms on Friday, January 27th until their demands are met.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) Ladoke, Chairman, Biodun Olaniran, told the daily that ASUU was not consulted before the Friday resumption date was announced to students.

“When asked what would be the fate of the students, the ASUU Chairman who had earlier hoped that the payment of N500 million would lead to reopening of the varsity said, “They (Students ) should impress it on the government to do the needful by showing commitment to the funding of the University.”
