Asuu Strike: Kogi State University SUG President Philip Omeipha Speaks On Cancelling The Planned Protest Till Further Notice


SUG Prsident Philip Shaibu Omepa posted this on his facebook timeline yesterday :

"Good morning my fellow students. The wave of hope blew towards us immediately after the tribunal case when the governor himself during the press interview told the
general public and the students that in less than 10 days the
issue will be resolved and we will get back to our various classes. I couldn't believe this since they have made several promises in d past so I had to make contacts to his various
appointees and aides and we were assured that d governor has decided to make d university his priority and they are making arrangements to pay and that the notification for the protest actually got to d desk of his excellency the
governor. Now in view of this, u will all believe me all we want is how this strike issue will be resolved within a short time so we can get back to class.

So it has been deliberated
and agreed by the students union government that the protest which is slated to be 9th in anyigba will no longer hold but if government fails to keep up their 10 days demand, we all will be matching to lugard house on 16th of dis month I.e next week Thursday which I believe by then the 10 days promised might have elapsed.

I want to urge every student that we re working in one spirit for the betterment of our own institution and SUG is there in dis administration to be close to students, stand and fight for
their right. We also want to thank every student for their patience and understanding with us. We are fighting for same cause.

Thank you all. (A message from) COMRADE
PHILIP SHAIBU OMEPA (08050476454)"
