ABSU Lifts Suspension of Professor Who Said Keke Drivers Earn More Than Varsity Profs Abia State University, Uturu (ABSU), has lifted the sûspension of Professor Nnamdi C. Nwaeze of the Department of Economics and recalled him back to work with immediate effect. The decision followed a written plea by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU-ABSU) to the management of the university. In a letter dated September 3, 2026, and signed by the Acting Registrar, Dr. Joy Nwankwo, the university management said the suspension was lifted following the plea from ASUU-ABSU.

Management also stated that it is still awaiting the panel’s ultimate report, indicating that the lifting of the suspension does not bring the ongoing investigation to an end.
