At the University of Ibadan, the strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, which began Monday 1 July has generated some bad blood between ASUU and some sections of the university, with breaches being committed.
For instance, ASUU was at loggerheads with the Faculty of Law for organizing examination for their final year students in order to ensure that they do not miss going to Law School this year...
The examination which took place at Dominican Institute, Samonda area of Ibadan, outside the university campus was said to have been invigilated by some of the parents of the graduating students.
It was alleged that the faculty took the step because some of the candidates were said to be children of some deans in the university and prominent Nigerians, including Senator Iyiola Omisore. Getting wind of what was believed to have been an illegal examination, ASUU members went to the venue to challenge the conduct of the examination but were harassed and assaulted.
To prevent a breakdown of law and order, the ASUU members left with a promise that appropriate action would be taken once the strike is over.
A member of ASUU described the examination as illegal.
