It’s no longer news that a former President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, Prof. Festus Iyayi, died on Tuesday in a car crash on Lokoja-Abuja Expressway when the convoy of Kogi state governors collides with that conveying the former ASUU president.
We received information that the Prof. Iyayi was returning from a meeting in one of the Northern ASUU chapters when the accident occurred.
It was reported that the late Prof. was in company with some ASUU leaders and they were said to be returning from Kano where they sought the views of members on ending the four-month-old ASUU strike.
However, his death has led to the postponement of ASUU’s executive meeting, which was to have met Wednesday to decide whether they should call of their four-month old strike.
It’s reported that the Union has postponed the call off till further notice.
What do you think? maybe the strike wouldn’t be called off this year again.
