Students of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), have staged a peaceful protest over the prolonged strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The students stormed the major highway at the main entrance of the Institution, chanting different solidarity songs and clutching placards with various inscriptions such as— “Revitalize our Education” “End ASUU Strike” “Save our future”.
Speaking during the protest in Akungba, President of the Students’ Union Government, Kolade Ogunsanmi, bemoaned the continued strike action saying it was staged to register the displeasure of the students.
Ogunsanmi lamented that the incessant closure of public universities had retarded the growth of the education sector, urging the both ASUU and Federal Government to come to terms.
A 300l law student, Seyifunmi Francis Adeosun, appealed to state Governors to intervene as the issue was beyond the Federal Government.
