Tambuwal orders reopening of Sokoto varsity amidst ASUU strike

Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, has ordered members of the Sokoto State University branch of Academic staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to resume classes or forfeit their salary forthwith.

He asked them to reconsider their position and go back to work, maintaining that the issues raised by ASUU branches in federal universities are not the same as what obtains in the state university.

He urged them to resume work if they have the interest of the state and its students at heart, stressing that last month he stopped the payment of their salary because he has been magnanimous enough by paying them more than five months’ salary without work.
