A statement issued by the university’s Information and Publication Secretary, Bala Abdullahi, on behalf of the University Registrar, noted that the action by the management followed the extension of the ongoing warning strike by members of the Academic Staff Union of the University, ASUU, for another two months.
“The management would from the said date, suspend the provision of all municipal services to the hostels,” the statement added.
The statement further stated that the steps were adopted to “forestall any unforeseen act of criminality as well as the attendant consequences.”
