The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) yesterday said it was not part of the plan by the management of  the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) to resume academic activities in the institution today.
The association stated this in a statement signed by its chairman in ESUT, Prof. Agu Gab Agu and other members of the union.
ASUU said in the statement that it’s attention has been drawn to an announcement by ESUT management that students would resume academic activities on Monday, November 18, 2013.

“The academic staff of ESUT dissociates itself from the above announcement,
“while ASUU-ESUT mourns the demise of Professor Festus Iyayi, a former President of ASUU, it awaits the directive of the NEC on the ongoing strike.”
LEADERSHIP gathered that a condolence register had been opened for the late Professor Iyayi at the ASUU Secretariat in ESUT, Agbani campus.
Speaking further, Prof. Agu  described the demise of Iyayi as a big loss to ASUU, stating that his death was a big loss to the union, the academia and the country in general.
