ASUU; REVITALISATION FUND NO LONGER APPLICABLE TO ECONOMIC REALITY.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU describing the N1.1 trillion outstanding revitalisation fund for the nation’s universities no longer applicable going by the current economic realities.

The chairman of the Ebonyi State University chapter of the Union, Dr. Ikechukwu Igwenyi made this statement today while addressing newsmen in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi state capital.

Igwenyi, who noted that the revitalization fund did not match the pact the union entered with the authorities in 2009 urged the union’s national leadership to go back to the drawing board and review the 2009 agreement it entered with the Federal Government.

The Union leader said it was expedient for leaders to pay critical attention to the merits of ASUU’s position on tertiary education as he lamented that the government was paying lip-service to the demands of the union.
