Not fewer than eleven lecturers will leave the University of Calabar between January 2022 and September 2022, according to the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
Dr. John Edor, the Chairman of ASUU at the University of Calabar, who spoke with our Calabar correspondent on Tuesday, confirmed this.
Dr Edor, however, stressed that the union, despite intimidation and neglect by the Federal Government, would not give up its insistence on their demands until the government met ASUU’s demands.
“It is not correct that we lost 21 lecturers. The truth is we lost about 12 members of the union between the commencement of the strike (February 2022) and now (September 2022).
“The government has not provided a conducive environment devoid of all impediments. We will continue to cope with whatever losses we have had. We will continue to embrace all the hazards, We are not ready to give in because of hunger, intimidation or court action. We are ready to take this fight to a logical end until the necessary things are done which the government ought to do”, Edor reiterated.
Sources within the university stated that the university had repeatedly published obituary announcements, announcing the death and interments of deceased academics, from the institution.
