All Vice-Chancellors Federal Universities
INDUSTRIAL ACTION BY UNIVERSITY-BASED UNIONS: INVITATION TO A SPECIAL INTERACTIVE MEETING WITH THE HONOURABLE MINISTER OF EDUCATION
As the Pro-Chancellors and Chairmen of Councils and the Vice-Chancellors are quite aware. the industrial action by University-based Unions has led to the closure of the institutions since February 2022. You are also aware that the non-teaching Unions have suspended their industrial actions with effect from 24 August 2022, while a final decision is being awaited from the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)
It has become necessary for the Governing Councils and the Managements of the Universities to be briefed on the decisions and actions taken by the Federal Government so far, to allow for a well-coordinated review of the situation, including building concensus around succeeding actions
Consequently, I am to invite the Pro-Chancellors & Chairmen of Councils as well as Vice Chancellors of Federal Universities to a special interactive meeting with the Honourable Minister of Education (HME), as detailed below:
Date: Tuesday, 6 September, 2022
Time: 11.00am
Venue: Prof. Idris Abdulkadir Auditorium, NUC Secretariat, Abuja
Vice-Chancellors are requested to bring this notice to attention of their respective Pro Chancellors and facilitate their attendance, accordingly.
Please apcept the assurances of the Executive Secretary's highest regards always.
