The University of Ibadan (UI) chapter of ASUU on Monday protested what they described as “merciless treatment” of university lecturers by the Federal Government.
The lecturers staged the protest within the campus with placards and sang to register their displeasure.
ASUU Chairman, UI Chapter, Prof Ayoola Akinwole, who addressed students and journalists during the rally, said it is a peaceful protest.
He urged the Federal Government to fulfill agreement reached with the unions.
Akinwole said, “The present government is one of the most lawless government Nigeria has ever seen. The government that doesn’t obey its own rule, the government that doesn’t obey its own court, a government that is merciless in meting out draconian policies on the working class. Our people say no to all these treatments.”
Similarly, a former National Treasurer of ASUU, Prof Ademola Aremu criticized the government over what he described as unfair treatment of lecturers.
