There is a need to check the powers of the Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai for him to know that he is working for the people and not for himself, President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, has said.
Osodeke said this on Thursday during a television interview, while reacting to the crisis rocking the Kaduna State University (KASU), where students have protested about a 500 percent hike in tuition fees by the state government.
Osodeke described the situation as “sad and terrible, especially at this time when an average parent can hardly feed and can hardly take care of their children”.
The ASUU president said he will stand by the students, and urged parents and indigenes of the state to rise up against the “dictatorial attitude which is prevalent in El-Rufai’s government.”
