The Obafemi Awolowo, Ile-Ife, has described as a lie the claim that the nationwide strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities had crippled academic and administrative activities in the institution.

The university noted that despite the strike, the institution, between December 11 and 14, 2018, successfully held its 43rd Convocation Ceremony for the 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 graduating sets.

Aside from that, OAU pointed out that even the various statutory meetings of the university did not suffer, while it also hosted several important conferences.

It urged its students not to panic, assuring them that the 2017/2018 Rain Semester examinations would hold as scheduled, despite the strike.

“No form of interruption, whatsoever, have academic activities including teaching, learning and research, suffered since the strike began,” the university said in a statement on Tuesday.

The school said it would not be held to ransom by less than 20 striking lecturers out of the over 1,300 academic staff population in the university.

Secretariat? that's serious then

ASUU should deny them every good thing that will come out of the strike.

OAU are idiots why are you on session? What are you teaching students with outdated procedures? If not for ASUU would there even be any university? ASUU brought TETFUND to redeem the university system. The only thing governent does is to pay salaries, no development whatsoever. Even the salaries are peanut as compared to their counterparts in other climes.
