Universities, Obafemi Awolowo University chapter, has declared a two-day
strike in solidarity with the school’s embattled former vice
chancellor, Anthony Elujoba, who is a facing corruption trial.
According to ASUU the accused professor was not guilty of the seven-count charge. Lecturers say they won't work on Monday and Tuesday lecture in solidarity with Mr. Elujoba.
The lecturers made the decision at a congress chaired by the ASUU’s caretaker chairman, Fashiku Christopher of the Department of Philosophy.
A federal high court sitting in Ede, Osun State, remanded the former acting vice chancellor in custody till Tuesday, when the case will come up again.
Reacting OAU Students Union said the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission should not probe Mr. Elujoba alone, but should extend its search to two other former vice chancellors, namely, Bamitale Omole and Micheal Faborode.
