The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Aliko Dangote University of Science and Technology, Wudil chapter has kicked against the dissolution of the institution’s governing council by Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf.
ASUU made this known in a statement signed by the chapter’s Chairperson, Dr.Aliyu Ahmad and Secretary, Dr.Mudassir Nasir on Wednesday,
The union described as “inappropriate,” the dissolution of the council which was effected by the Gov. Yusuf, on May 29.
The union expressed dismayed over the continuous running of the institution, formerly known as Kano State University of Science and Technology, without a governing council, as a result of the dissolution.
The statement pointed that the development was in breach and disregard of the provisions of the Kano State University of Science and Technology (Amendment) Law of 2017.
Against this backdrop, ASUU called on the governor to, as a matter of urgency reconstitute the council “in order to avoid paralysing the university system.”
It also urged the state government to settle the outstanding entitlements of staff of the university.
