University of Abuja ASUU Members Meet Over Vice-Chancellor Selection Controversy

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at the University of Abuja is currently holding a meeting to address the controversy surrounding the selection process for the Vice-Chancellor. The ASUU members are concerned about the alleged plans to subvert the process, particularly the appointment of Aisha Maikudi as the acting Vice-Chancellor despite objections regarding qualifications and selection criteria.

The ASUU branch at the university is deliberating on the crisis, with external members of the council from the southern region expressing concerns and warning of potential litigation. The ASUU hopes to take a definitive stance on the matter.

The controversy has led to tensions within the university community, with the ASUU seeking to address the situation and ensure a transparent and fair selection process.
