The National Association of Kogi Medical Students (NAKOMS). on behalf of its members at Kogi State University, KSU, appeals to Kogi state government to reach a quick resolution with Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to end the ongoing 6-weeks old ‘NO PAY, NO WORK’ action embarked on by KSU chapter of ASUU.
This was disclosed in a press statement made by Onoja Emmanuel, the Vice President of the association in Lokoja yesterday 27th may, 2016.
He said this became necessary as the ongoing 6-weeks old strike has an adverse effect on the college of health sciences as the medical academic calendar of the college is being disrupted and also that the college stands a risk of loosing senior lecturers and professors which is one of the major requirements for the further accreditation of the college by the National University Council (NUC) and the Medical And Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN).
The NAKOMS Vice President also appealed to students to avoid violent protest and commended the tireless efforts of the leadership of the student union government (SUG) kogi state chapter, national association of kogi state stu dents (NAKOSS), and the kogi state university medical students association (KSUMSA) for their commitment, up and doing from the onset of the strike.
He advised students to observe restraint in order to avoid unforeseeable repercussions. He also commended he effort of Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, on his nation building and youth empowerment programmes and stated the association’s support for his administration.
