Sometime last two weeks, reports claimed that Chairman of ASUU, Abuja State Chapter said the Academic union will go on a week warning strike before making it indefinite but the Chairman, Ben Ugheoke has denied making such statement. The rumour was spread by a NAN reporter (name not disclosed) who pleaded and said it was a mix-up.

Mr Ugheoke said: “A certain reporter in NAN is responsible for this damage. As a result of this falsified report, I am facing a panel later tonight from ASUU National body. I have reached out to the NAN reporter and he told me it was a mix-up. He also begged me to save his job. We have never given a date for any form of strike, whether warning strike or full blown strike. There was nothing like a date fixed for a strike” he said.

Ugheoke says he hopes the agency will release a rebuttal to the false report soon. ASUU on August 31st, threatened to embark on a nationwide strike over the non-implementation of its 2009 agreement with the Federal Government.
