Following President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decision decision to dissolve the Governing Councils of all federal universities in the country, a coalition of Civil Society Organisations, CSOs, have started kicking against the move, and has called on the federal government to reverse it, describing the action “as inimical to the growth of university education and unlawful”.

The Ministry of Labour and Employment has confirmed receipt of an application for the registration of a new university union, Congress of University Academics (CONUA), to be formed out of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

We desire a working and sane government who would help build more schools and fund the existing ones with necessary equipment and facilities, train and employ more facilitators/teachers, re-visit the school curriculum, pay teachers/lecturers very well for their huge contributions in the society and help make a free flow academic calendar.
