UNIZIK Divided over Joining ASUU Strike

The academic staff union of Universities(asuu) in Nnamdi Azikiwe University is divided over the on-going nationwide strike by the body.

Two factions of the body in the institution, one led by Prof. Ike Odimegwu & the other, committee of ASUU progressives, led by Prof. Maduabuchi Dukor, maintained opposing positions.

Dukor's faction,comprising Prof. Edmund Egboh, Dr. Achunan Nwabueze, Prof. Emma Akuezuiloh & Dr. Jerry Emejulu, among others, said they were standing down the strike for now so as to complete the on-going 2nd semester examinations in the university.

Odimegwu's faction announced joining of the strike yesterday during the congress held at the multi-purpose hall of the institution.

Students are now in a confused state. I will update this thread later on.
