AN URGENT APPEAL TO THE NANS PRESIDENT, COMRADE BABATUNDE — PLEASE INTERVENE IN THE AAUA ASUU STRIKE

Dear Comrade Babatunde,
NANS President,

We, the concerned students of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), are appealing to you at this critical moment to urgently intervene in the ongoing crisis between the AAUA ASUU chapter and the Ondo State Government.

Our academic calendar has already suffered serious setbacks due to the previous industrial action. We were hoping and looking forward to commencing our Second Semester examinations, especially after the Ondo State Government approved the release of ₦1.1 billion as a special intervention fund towards addressing the salary arrears and resolving the crisis. (Leadership⁠)

However, waking up to the news of another indefinite strike has once again thrown thousands of students into uncertainty, anxiety and frustration.

Sir, we understand and respect the legitimate concerns of our lecturers. We also believe that every worker deserves to be paid and treated fairly. However, students should not continue to bear the consequences of a prolonged dispute between the government and university staff.

Our examinations are hanging in the balance. Our academic calendar is at risk. Our graduation plans, personal finances and future academic opportunities are also being affected.

This is why we are respectfully calling on you, as the NANS President and the voice of Nigerian students, to urgently intervene and engage all relevant stakeholders — the Ondo State Government, AAUA Management and ASUU-AAUA — towards an immediate resolution of this crisis.

We humbly appeal that your intervention should be immediate enough to ensure that the strike is called off within the next 24 hours, so that students can return to campus and commence our Second Semester examinations without further delay.

We are tired of strikes.
We are tired of uncertainty.
We want to write our examinations.
We want our academic calendar protected.
We want to graduate on time.

Comrade President, this is a moment for student leadership to stand firmly with the students.

Please hear our cry. Please intervene. Please help us save our academic calendar.

We are counting on your leadership and urgent intervention.

AAUA STUDENTS ARE SAYING: LET US WRITE OUR EXAMINATIONS!

*FROM:THE STUDENTS’ UNION,*
*ADEKUNLE AJASIN UNIVERSITY,AKUNGBA-AKOKO, ONDO STATE.*

*TO:THE ONDO STATE GOVERNMENT.*

*PRESS RELEASE*

*RE: URGENT CALL FOR GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION IN THE ONGOING ASUU-AAUA INDUSTRIAL ACTION*

The Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko Students’ Union (AAUASU), expresses its profound dissatisfaction and grave concern over the ongoing industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU-AAUA), which has now persisted for fourteen (14) days.

This prolonged strike has brought academic activities to a complete standstill, further disrupting the University’s academic calendar and creating an atmosphere of uncertainty, anxiety, and frustration among thousands of students whose educational aspirations continue to suffer.

As a direct consequence of the strike, many students have been compelled to vacate the university environment due to the absence of a clear timeline for the resolution of the dispute. Others who remain on campus continue to endure psychological, emotional, and financial hardship while awaiting the resumption of academic activities.

The Students’ Union considers this situation deeply unfortunate and unacceptable. Every additional day of inactivity erodes students’ confidence in the educational system, delays graduation, disrupts academic planning, and places unnecessary financial burdens on parents and guardians who continue to bear the cost of an interrupted education.

Education is a fundamental right and a critical instrument for the development of Ondo State and Nigeria at large. It is therefore imperative that every responsible stakeholder accords this matter the urgency it deserves. We strongly believe that the issues responsible for this industrial action can be resolved through sincere dialogue, commitment, and decisive intervention by the Ondo State Government.

Accordingly, the Students’ Union Government hereby calls on the Ondo State Government, under the leadership of His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Ondo State, together with all relevant authorities, to immediately engage with the leadership of ASUU-AAUA and ensure a prompt and lasting resolution to the issues that have resulted in this regrettable industrial action.

In the interest of preserving the academic future of AAUA students, we have exhausted the 2 C’s of Aluta and we are left with no other option to include the last C of Aluta.The Students’ Union Government hereby issues a seventy-two (72) hour ultimatum to the Ondo State Government to provide a clear, practical, and satisfactory response towards resolving the ongoing strike.

Failure to demonstrate genuine commitment within the stipulated period will leave the Students’ Union with no alternative but to mobilise students and pursue all lawful, peaceful, and democratic actions necessary to protect the educational rights and collective interests of the students of Adekunle Ajasin University.

This statement should not be construed as a threat but rather as a sincere appeal born out of the frustration, uncertainty, and hardship currently being experienced by the students of our great institution. We remain committed to constructive engagement, peace, and dialogue, but we cannot continue to watch the future of our students being jeopardised by prolonged inaction.

The time for decisive intervention is now. The future of thousands of AAUA students depends on it.
