DAILY POST reported that ASUU has been on strike since February over the failure of the federal government to meet its demands.
Many attempts by the government to make the lecturers return to the classrooms have not yielded results as of today.
Just on Monday, labour unions commenced solidarity protests in some parts of the country with ASUU.
However, speaking on a radio programme in Kaduna on Wednesday, El-Rufai told the lecturers to return to classrooms in order to avoid having their positions declared vacant, adding that KASU lecturers had no reason to join any strike.
He said the acting chancellor has assured me they that they will resume, but I have asked them to find out if they actually resumed work, because I initially instructed that their salary be stopped. But I was later told they didn’t join the strike, so I asked that it should be investigated and those that collected salary and joined the strik
