Read the full details of the strike update as reported byVanguard Newspaper
Journalists were , Monday, assaulted by some officials of the Academic
Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), while they were waiting for the
outcome of the Union's National Executive Committee, NEC, meeting
holding at the Federal University of Technology, in Minna.
The closed-door meeting which started at about 11:30am was still
ongoing at press time.
However, there was disagreement among ASUU members over the presence
of the media, some suggested the media should stay because they are
doing their job, others persisted that "we did not invite them. When
we need them, we will invite them."
The Vice Chancellor, Federal University of Technology Minna, Prof.
Musbau Akanji, who got wind of the altercation between journalists
and the ASUU officials, intervened saying, "although, I am not a part
of the meeting but I am apologizing on their behalf because they are
in my territory.
"This place (FUT, Minna) is a Federal Government institution, and it
is a public place that everybody, including journalists can enter,
especially when they are doing their job."
As at the time of filing this report, the strike has not been called off.
