We’ve met your demands, LASU tells ASUU
Members of the university’s ASUU had Tuesday declared an indefinite strike over what they described as failure of the management of LASU to meet their three core demands, on reversal of the high LASU tuition regime from N348, 750 to a maximum N50, 000 across board; repeal of the no vacancy, no promotion policy of the institution’s administration and the implementation of the universities (Amendment) Act, 2012, which would see academic staff in the professorial cadre retire at age 70 instead of 65, in the university.
However, speaking to Vanguard, the university’s spokesperson, Kayode Sutton, claimed the university had engaged over 413 ASUU members, which dismissed ASUU’s allegation that there was ‘no vacancy, no promotion policy in the university.
