<\/p>\nASUU issued this warning through a statement made available to Arewa. ng by its Zonal Coordinator, Dr. Ade Adejumo, at the end of the zonal meeting held at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso on Monday.<\/p>\n
Adejumo in the statement entitled, \u201cASUU warns UNIOSUN Vice Chancellor against harassment of members\u201d, alleged Popoola of compelling members to break the strike and attempting to completely eradicate ASUU in UNIOSUN by compelling members to attend management, senate, principal officers and other statutory meetings during strike.<\/p>\n
He said, \u201cProfessor Popoola was alleged of compelling members to break the strike and attempting to completely eradicate ASUU in Uniosun through the following anti-union activities and hostile administrative policies among others:<\/p>\n
\u201cCompelling members to attend management, senate, principal officers and other statutory meetings during strike and holding the 7th convocation of the University between Monday 19th and Thursday 22nd November, 2018 without any waiver from ASUU. Implementation of the obnoxious \u201cNo work no pay\u201c rule in UNIOSUN even when the NUC had directed all Vice-Chancellors and Councils to stay action.<\/p>\n
\u201cStoppage of deduction of the monthly check-off dues from the salaries of our members to the coffers of ASUU. Issuance of threat circulars to members, who are currently on lawful strike to commence uploading of the results of the 2017\/2018 harmattan and rain semesters on the University\u2019s RPMS.<\/p>\n
\u201cDirecting members to resume academic activities when you are clearly aware that the strike is still actively on. Victimisation of the Branch Officers who were on lawful union\u2019s assignment.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe zonal body of the union, however, commended the branch officers and the entire members of ASUU-UNIOSUN for their resolve to fight for truth and justice towards ensuring that university education is adequately funded in Nigeria.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo reasonable university administrator would force ASUU members to break this strike because dividends of such struggles have always ended up on the table of Vice-Chancellors; any attempt to strangulate the hen that lays the golden eggs is therefore hypocritical.\u201d<\/p>\n
Adejumo, while speaking further, urged the Vice Chancellor not to implement policies that are antithetical to the ASUU struggle.<\/p>\n
\u201cVice-Chancellors, Professor Popoola inclusive are members of ASUU and should not be seen to implement policies that are antithetical to the to ASUU struggle.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow that the strike has entered the fifth week, ASUU enjoined all members at that branch to disregard any directive of the Vice-Chancellor that contravenes the strike bulletins 1-5 issued by the National Strike Coordinating Committee (NSCC) of the Union and sternly warned Professor Popoola to desist from harassing its members and to abide by the rules of the Union or risk being sanctioned.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe union will soon come out with a full statement on the activities of Professor Labode Popoola, unbecoming of a University Vice-Chancellor, which include his militarised mode of administration and utter disregard for rights and privileges of members of staff.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
