The governor of Imo State Rochas Okorocha is mandating all lecturers in the state university to
To go and teach in his private owned university, European university.
One of the lectures speaking anonymously to Tori Naija said:
The governor wants to use the same Lecturers teaching in Imo state university for his newly established Imo European University located at his home town Ogboko.
The Lecturer in her own words said:
The governor wants us to teach in his privately owned University, i.e. the European University
Which he cited at his home town Ogboko. That is to say we are to drive down to his home town every day,
Teach at the institution at the same pay we receive as employees of the state owned Institution just because he is the Governor.
Right now the Institution (IMSU) is on strike for owed salaries.
So he used the medium to bring up the issue again that if he is to pay us,
We must agree to his terms.
The lecturers of Imo State University have all rejected the proposal.
The Institution went on Strike immediately after after the Schools 7th convocation ceremony which also featured the governor.
And they have been on strike ever since.
