KASU management had last week issued a circular that the University would start full academic activities on 9th May, 2022.

However, in a statement issued jointly by the ASUU chairman and the Assistant Secretary, Kaduna State University branch, Dr Peter Adamu, and Dr Akos Ibrahim, respectively, the union dissociated itself from the purported circular released by the University authority.

A statement by the union drew attention was drawn to a purported circular trending on social media platforms stating that KASU management had pulled out of the current roll-over strike declared by ASUU.

The statement described the circular as a ploy to misinform the public, parents and guardians, and to blackmail the union.

The statement said it is important to note that the management of the university was not the mouthpiece of the Union and cannot speak on behalf of the union.

The statement warned parents and students and guardians not to allow their children to resume for now until the current roll-over strike was suspended.

It said listening and obeying the KASU management’s directive was purely a violation of the position of the union in the current struggle.
