Olowu of Kuta, HRM Oba Adekunle Makama Oyelude, Tegbosun III, has appealed to the federal government to resolve the lingering crisis involving it and the Academic Staff Union of Universities, (ASUU) without further delay.
Olowu made this appeal on Tuesday when his convoy ran into the road block mounted by National Association of Nigerian Students’ NANS on Lagos/Ibadan Expressway protesting the lingering crisis.
The monarch who addressed the students body and urged them to open the expressway to ensure free flow of traffic promised to take up the issue with the authorities concerned.
He, however, commended the students for listening to him and the security for the way they handled the peaceful protest from degenerating to fracas.
Oba Makama had on his Facebook page wrote; “Earlier today we ran into a massive protest by National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, on the lingering ASUU strike,
“Their massive protest ground traffic to a halt on the ever busy Lagos/Ibadan expressway.”
Recalled that university students across the country had vacated their respective institution following the strike action declared by the Academic Staff Union of Universities to press home their demands from the government.
