There was drama Thursday at Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, COOU, Igbariam, Anambra State yesterday as gun-wielding security men from the institution’s anti-cultism outfit chased away lecturers of the institution, preventing them from holding a scheduled meeting.

The lecturers under the aegis of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) recently dissociated themselves from the planned reopening of the institution by its management, a development that irked the Vice-Chancellor, Prof Greg Nwakoby.

ASUU in the institution, led by Prof Alphonsus Aniebo and the zonal coordinator of the group, in Owerri Zone, Dr Uzo Onyebinama had made to commence a meeting at the congress hall of the university, when gun-wielding security men from the institution’s anti-cult outfit stopped them, asking all of the group to leave.

The group left the hall and converged under a mango tree in the institution, but were also stopped from meeting but they insisted.

The immediate past coordinator of ASUU, Owerri zone, Prof Ike Odumegwu who spoke to journalists said, “the security men said they were instructed by the Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof Greg Nwakoby not to let the group hold its meeting within the institution.

“We have never been treated this way before. How can the Vice-Chancellor send security men to stop us from meeting? They shut the door against us and asked everyone out of the hall as if we were common criminals.”

Prof Alphonsus Aniebo, chairman of ASUU in the institution said, “I have been queried because of this strike and this is geared towards terminating my appointment in this university

“It is very unfortunate. This union made a lot of sacrifices, we have been key to the struggles here. We will not be intimidated. In this university, there is no budget monitoring fund. TETFUND and NEEDS are products of ASUU struggles, but the VC is bent on killing the university because he has just three years to leave.

“The university wants us to break a national strike, but we have said we will not. We will keep following the national body of ASUU because every achievement he has here has been as a result of ASUU struggle,” he said.

Chairman of the Owerri zone of ASUU, Dr Uzo Onyebinama condemned the action of the Vice-Chancellor, refuting claims that the lecturers had no reason to go on strikes because they are not captured in the controversial IPPIS payment model.

“Let me tell you, our struggle has been on, for a number of reasons before the Federal Government brought in IPPIS. For the vice-chancellor to claim that IPPIS is the sole reason for the strike shows that he is not well informed.”

Vice-Chancellor of the institution, Prof Greg Nwakoby had days back stated that academic activities will continue in the institution. He stated that out of over 600 lecturers in the university, only a few were embarking on the strike.

Hmm, this country eh

Those ASUU in COOU are very selfish. [/b] Embarking on solidarity strike when you are not a federal institution is senseless[b] let the vice Chancellor fight them as much as he could.

When Prof. Okafor was the VC, most of this lecturers made istration hard for him despite his staff and students friendly policies. He is now gone and the so anticipated Prof Greg is doing this to them. What goes around comes around. I don't really pity them. It's was the students turn before, now it's the staffs turn

Wahala


Incase you don't know na me talk

In a University, security men are stopping academics from meeting. Let the security men go and lecture the students then.

Ok
They just keep rambling and still, they didn't mention the reason they are embarking on the proposed strike.
Mtchew, the people wey don graduate tey tey, did they have anything to show for it?

Yes you’re right, there are plenty Anambra prostitute in SW brothels.

Not even SW brothels tho, I heard you can find them in the North too and some part of the SS.

I heard that is a revenue generating area in Anambra beside the baby factory industry.

Is it true?

You mean South Wa$te?

Prof Greg is a blessing to COOU. I’m a proud undergraduate in the above mentioned varsity and all d VC is currently doing is the right thing. Other state universities and even a federal university is about to resume. Why then shouldn’t we?
I wonder when my school anti-cult repented. They for arrest them all and hand over to awkuzu SARS. Criminals. Every structure built by the tetfund and seed initiative is well deserved and not a Favour. ASUU is weakening universities. Everyday young people are dropping out while the girls are getting married. These individuals are supposed to be in school now, mostly in their finals. COOU isn’t owing any staff a dime. We are good. We wanna resume. No union can prevail against that decision.

I know this will either end in Sacking of some lecturers or ousting the Vc out of office.
