ASUU strike: FUTA asks students to vacate hostel in 24 hours
The Federal University of Technology (FUTA), Akure has asked its students to vacate their halls of residence within the next 24 hours.
In a statement signed by Richard Arifalo, the institution’s registrar, FUTA said the decision was taken as a result of the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
“In view of the ongoing industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU and the subsequent cessation of academic and related activities, the Vice Chancellor, in consultation with the Management, has authorized the closure of the University with effect from Thursday, March 17th, 2022 until further notice.
“All students who are still residing in halls of residence are hereby advised to move out within 24 hours.
