According to Nigerian Tribune, students of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko, have commended the leadership of the institution for exhibiting exemplary leadership even as the Vice Chancellor, Professor Femi Mimiko and the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Professor Rotimi Ajayi, returned to lecture rooms apparently to make up for a shortfall in the number of academic staff that have resumed work.

Also, as the Federal Government’s deadline for the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) ends today, some lecturers of University of Lagos, have agreed to resume work today, five months after the strike.

One of the lecturers, Dr Micheal Ogbeide, in an interview with the Nigerian Tribune, said some of them have decided to resume against the union’s position. He said, “I, alongside other lecturers, who are ready to resume work will go back to work as directed by the government, who owns the school.”

Nigerian Tribune, gathered that the lecturers agreed to resume work, whether ASUU called off the strike or not, while some of them agreed out of fear of losing their jobs as threatened by government and/or exhaustion from the longevity of the five month-old-strike.
