The Registrar of the school, Dotun Awoyemi, communicated the development through a statement, Monday afternoon.
This came a day after the Vice Chancellor, Eyitope Ognbodede, issued a warning of proscription during a meeting with the leadership of the union and campus journalists. He said recent activities of the union had plunged the school into embarrassment. On Monday, he made real his threat by suspending student union activities.
He also accused the union leaders of spreading rumours of fees increment “and fabricated threats of invasion by cultists in order to deceive and falsely gain acceptance of the students’ populace to precipitate crisis, capable of disrupting the academic activities of the University.”
Based on the cases, the management reached the “inevitable conclusion” to suspend the union leadership until further notice. Any student or group of students who parades himself or herself as leaders or representatives of the students in causing disruption of the University activities, under whatever guise, will be dealt according to the University rules and regulations and Code of Conduct, and according to laws of the land.

Not a new thing Stella. That's what the magt uses to intimidate the students and frankly, it helps in a way.
ReplyDeleteDuring my time at OAU, if ASUU doesn't go on strike just before exams, student union activities will lead to closure of school. The popular 'Will exam hold?' was a common tactic to get the school to reschedule exam. Before you know it, they start protesting and the magt will send everyone home.
OAU I hail thee.
Will exams hold???
