Lectures Disrupted At UNIBEN By ASUU Members


There was pandemonium at the University of Benin yesterday Monday December 9th as members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, (ASUU) UNIBEN chapter disrupted an ongoing lecture at the university and forced a UNIBEN lecturer out of the lecture hall.

This came as there was a division among lecturers at the University of Benin (UNIBEN), over whether to resume work or not.


ASUU STRIKE: Dr Godspower Ekhobase ordered to leave

Some UNIBEN lecturers resumed last week following the Federal Government’s directive to resume work and as a UNIBEN lecturer, Dr Godspower Ekhobase of the Computer Science gathered his students to begin his class, The Union members stormed the lecture room and stopped it.

Dr Ekhobase refused to listen to the directive given by the institution’s ASUU chapter, leading to a fracas.
The UNIBEN ASUU officials, led by its chairman, Dr Tony Emina-Monye, were said to have retreated after the lecturer was joined by the few students in class.
