The management of Kaduna State University (KASU) says the Kaduna State Government has nothing to do with its decision to pull out of the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The management of the university made this known in a statement issued by the KASU Public Relations Officer, Mr. Adamu Bargo, on Wednesday.
The management was reacting to a report by some sections of the media that Governor Nasir El-Rufai-led administration has coerced the university’s management into resuming academic activities.
Bargo, however, stated: “The management of the university will like to reiterate and take responsibility on the decision to pull out of the ASUU strike. The Kaduna State Government is not involved in this decision.

“The report that management was forced to resume academic activities is fake news, a handiwork of mischief-makers.”
According to the university spokesman, the recent announcement on the resumption of academic activities is in line with the academic calendar that stipulates continuation of lectures effective from May 9, 2022.
The Star had earlier reported that the management of the university, on April 26, announced that academic activities will resume on May 9 for the second semester of the 2020/2021 academic session.
ASUU began an industrial action in February to press home its demand for the implementation of its 2009 renegotiated agreement with the Federal Government.
