ASUU Strike: Imo University pulls out, opens for academic session

The management of the Imo state university, IMSU, on Monday pulled out from the almost ongoing seven months strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, and announced that it has opened the university for academic activities.

The management made this known to newsmen in Owerri, through the IMSU, Public Relations Officer, PRO, Ralph Njoku.

However, he said that the school has no issue with ASSU and that the decision was to prevent any action to shortchange the next generation.

“We decided that we don’t want to shortchange our next generation. Just like the 2022 applicants, we have not even matriculated them and we are coming up with 2022/2023 if we keep delaying we will lose so many people who are desirous of University education. So, we felt it is time to hold the bull by the horn.”
