BY DAYO ADESULU

Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU) University of Lagos (UNILAG) branches have revealed why the suspended Pro-Chancellor of UNILAG must continue his good work, adding that Babalakin was committed to workers welfare.

In the document submitted last Wednesday, unions faulted the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) for declaring Babalakin persona non-grata.

The Unions said: ”The Visitation panel must understand that JAC of SSANU and NASU is pleased with the Council led by Dr Wale Babalakin for the obvious reason that he was committed to staff welfare issues.”

Based on the aforementioned, SSANU and NASU last Wednesday expressed confidence in Dr Wale Babalakin’s leadership as Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of Governing Council.

SSANU and NASU said they wish the visitation panel would address the stagnation/non-promotion of non-teaching workers; the discrimination against non-teaching staff in the allocation of staff residential quarters; among others.
