The SUG president, Comr. Philip Omepa stated on his Facebook Wall that except the demands of the students are met, the students should come out and join him shut down the gates of the campus against the candidates currently writing jamb. Read his update below:
WHO IS FOOLING WHO?
I remember vividly how my hopes arose again two weeks back when I visited a governing council member who is heading the committee on union affairs in the council MR. J.O AMODU. While in his office he called the school bursar who affirmed that he was in lokoja to clear both February and march salary. We were both happy as I was told immediately they pay they lecturers, they will fix resumption date. A week later, the governor called all the council members, expressed his bitterness as to why virtually all the state owned institutions were closed down and students protesting against his government. He went further to ask council members what it will take to for school to reopen before 15th may 2017. In response to his question the council chairman outrightly outline three factors to which resumption is based on:
1. That salaries of February and march be paid in full… (Only February paid).
2. That EAA of january, February and march be paid (still pending)
3. That government should not take action on faulters of the screening exercise till the council reviews the result.
All these factors were approved by Mr. Governor (mind you this is not the first time he is always approving)

There and there he told the accountant general and the auditor general that if they don’t adhere to his directive of paying the staffs before 15th may, they will be sacked.
Today is may 15th, Mr governor, the accountant general and auditor are yet to adhere to your instructions and you have not sacked them.
The question is:
Who is fooling who? (Government/council/asuu/students)
Is our governor not a man of his word again?
Is our governor genuine when he expressed that he was once a students and if he was treated as such he wouldn’t have risen to become a state governor?
Hope when we start another version of protest, we won’t be tagged enemies of the state.
Parties are given one week extension to settle their dispute or students too takes drastic measure to take their future into their hands.
Note(students):
During this one week students leaders will meet and to take decisions as to call on students to come over to school let’s remain in class till we are lectured and during this course, UTME exams will not be holding in our campuses.
Our humble submissions.
Aluta continua…
Victoria asserta
