He noted that the incessant strikes had affected the academic calendar of public owned universities.

Similarly, the chairman, Communiqué Drafting Committee, Mr Usman Ayuba, urged President  Buhari to bring on board capable hands with experience and capacity to stem the tide of insecurity in the country.

Ayuba also appealed to the government to proffer workable solutions to address incessant clashes between farmers and herders across the country.
