Alumni wade into LAUTECH crisis

- From Dele Ogunyemi, Ibadan

The Alumni Associatio­n of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, has appealed to Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun and his Oyo State counterpar­t, Senator Isiaq Abiola Ajimobi, to find a solution to the strike action by unions, which led to the closure of the institutio­n for weeks. The university is jointly owned by the two states. This was contained in a press statement issued by the associatio­n, and jointly signed by the National President, Jide Bewaji; General Secretary, Kamal K. Oloso and the Public Relations Officer, Owoyokun Samson.

“It has become imperative as the owners of the university and concerned major stakeholde­rs in the LAUTECH project to make a clarion call to the government­s of Oyo and Osun states to compassion­ately rescue the institutio­n from untimely collapse and save the future of our beloved undergradu­ates,” it said.
