Standup9ja: UNIOSUN reopens as leaders of staff unions signed undertaking to be of good conduct
The Senate of Osun State University has reopened the institution four days after it was shut down indefinitely as a result what the management of the university described as "notorious activities of some non-teaching staff members".
The Registrar and Secretary to Governing
Council of the University, Mr Gafar Adebayo Shittu in a press statement
in Osogbo, the state capital on Friday said the Senate of the University
reviewed the circumstances surrounding the closure of the University on
Monday 28 May, 2018 and approved the reopening of the university for
academic activities on Monday 04 June, 2018.
According to the statement, "Senate notes the
written commitment to be of good conduct by the few staff members who
have been tormenting the University over the last few years to security
agencies in the State of Osun."
"Senate will therefore, like to convey the
approval of Council that the University be re-opened for academic
activities on Monday 04 June, 2018."
"While thanking the Government of the State of
Osun, security agencies, parents, guardians, students and law abiding
staff of the University for their forbearance, understanding and
cooperation, Senate wishes to reiterate the resolve of Council and
Management to uphold academic culture, apply strictly, the rules and
regulations of the University and ensure law and order expected of a
truly 21st Century University."
The Chairman of Non-Academic Staff Union,
UNIOSUN branch, Comrade Isaiah Fayemi told Standup9ja that the Director
of the Department of State Security Service (DSS) had a meeting with
the leaders of staff unions and that the chairmen of three staff unions
signed a document bothering on maintaining peace, law and order on the
campus.
