CEM REPORT | The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has kicked against the just concluded second-semester examination of the Kaduna State University (KASU).
ASUU has called on the university management to nullify the examination pending the suspension of the ongoing strike in the country by the national body.
According to a statement signed by the Zonal Coordinator, ASUU-Kano Zone, Comrade Abdulkadir Muhammad, he noted that if the institution’s management fails to cancel the examination, the union will be left with no option but to write a petition to the National University Commission (NUC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC).
He added that the examination must be re-conducted after following due process.
“These theatrical exercises that the University management confused and referred to as examinations that are currently going on in KASU are characterised by non-coverage of courses outlines, incomplete lecture contact hours.
“Non-participation of lecturers who taught the courses in the setting of the examination questions and supervision, involvement of students in invigilation and non-moderation of questions papers, which are clear violations of the laid down rules and regulations governing the conduct of examinations.
“Therefore, ASUU demands that all the so-called- examinations so far conducted be discarded in order to maintain and respect the scared system of evaluation in the university.”
Recall a CEM report of the reopening of the institution a few days after Governor Nasir El-Rufai during a live broadcast threatened to sack all the striking lecturers and conducted its second-semester examination.
