Senator Olanrewaju Tejuoso, pro-chancellor of Joseph Sarwuan Tarka University, Makurdi, has also been named alternate chairman.

This appointment followed an emergency meeting held recently at the National Universities Commission (NUC) in Abuja.

Key stakeholders, including Dr Chris Maiyaki, the acting executive secretary of the NUC, and Professor Yakubu Ochefu, the secretary-general of the Committee of Pro-Chancellors, attended the meeting.
During the meeting, four pro-chancellors were nominated to join the chairman and alternate chairman of the federal government team responsible for negotiating the ongoing trade dispute with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The nominees are Senator Professor Nora Daddut, pro-chancellor of Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA); Ambassador Greg Mbadiwe, pro-chancellor of Nnamdi Azikiwe University (Unizik); Professor Ignatius Onimao, pro-chancellor of Federal University of Technology, Babura; and H.E. Mahmud Shinkafi, pro-chancellor of Modibbo Adama University, Yola.

Maiyaki, in his opening remarks, emphasised the crucial role of pro-chancellors in the governance of Nigerian federal universities. He informed the attendees that ASUU had declared a trade dispute over breaches in the 2009 Agreement with the government.
