Lecturers and Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities at the Ekiti State University EKSU have occupied the campus to press home their pending demands from the state government and the university management.

The Chairman Academic Staff Union of Universities, EKSU Chapter, KAYODE AROGUNDADE accused the state Governor of shunning several appeals from the Union and other intermediaries.

The unions are aggrieved that the state government has not met their demands for payment of three months’ salary arrears dated 2018, six years of earned academic allowances and unremitted cooperative deductions among other demands.

The protesters occupied the university complex causing a standstill of traffic and activities on campus for over two hours, and were seen singing solidarity songs while vowing to increase the intensity of the protest day by day.
