The Academic Staff Union of Universities
in the Federal University of Technology, Akure, has said the union was
not part of the protest by some labour unions of the institution on
Thursday.
Members of three labour unions in the
university – the Non Academic Staff Union, the Senior Staff Association
of Nigerian Universities and the National Association of Academic
Technologists – on Thursday, protested against the release of the
Vice-Chancellor of FUTA, Prof. Adebiyi Daramola, by the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission.
The Chairman of ASUU in FUTA, Dr. Bola
Oniya, said members of the union were not part of those who called for
the sacking of the vice-chancellor.
Oniya stated, “We want to use this opportunity to tell the whole world that ASUU is not part of the protest of last Thursday.”
Similarly, the Student Union Government
of the institution described the call for the sacking of the VC as an
attempt to destabilise the smooth academic system of the institution and
the destiny of the students of the school.
