ASUU Strike: Gombe Varsity Asks Lecturers On Study Leave To Resume
Gombe State University (GSU) management on Monday asked all academic staff members currently on study leave to resume duty with immediate effect.
Registrar of the university, Dr Abubakar Aliyu Bafeto, in a memo dated September 5, 2022, directed all lecturers studying within Nigeria to return to their duty post, pending resumption of academic activities in their respective universities of studies.
“This is pending the resumption of academic activities in the universities of their studies. The affected staffs are strongly advised to ensure strict compliance.”
Daily Trust reports that the GSU management had last Thursday directed all academic staff of the institution to resume work with immediate effect.
The university provided attendance registers for lecturers willing to resume for classes and stated that it would evoke the doctrine of ‘no-work, no-pay,’ against all staff members who failed to resume before Friday, September 9, 2022.
Also, it matriculated the newly admitted students last Saturday.
However, Chairman of GSU chapter of ASUU, Dr Suleiman Salihu Jauro, said the union had rejected the directive of the university management to resume work.
