 Mozambique opposition leader returns after fleeing on post-election safety fears Mozambique opposition leader Venancio Mondlane returned home on Thursday, after fleeing in the days following a hotly contested October election that sparked demonstrations in which scores of protesters have been killed, Reuters reported. Mondlane says the Oct. 9 poll was rigged and has called on his supporters to take to the streets across the southern African nation of 35 million. A heavy riot police presence was felt in the areas surrounding capital Maputo's international airport where thousands gathered to welcome Mondlane. A Reuters witness said tear gas was fired on crowds in the area and snipers were positioned on buildings around the air base. Protests have continued, sporadically, for more than two months, and Mondlane's return could add fuel to the fire. Civil society monitoring group Plataforma Decide said at least 278 people had died in the protests since mid-October, when the electora...

 UniAbuja Governing Council Defends VC Appointment, Insists on Compliance with Legal Processes


The governing council of the University of Abuja has responded to allegations that it violated established laws and procedures in the appointment of Professor Aisha Maikudi as the university’s 7th substantive vice-chancellor.


In a statement released on Wednesday, the council emphasized that it followed all relevant legal provisions in accordance with the University of Abuja Act and the Universities (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Amendment) Act 2003, No. 1 of 2007.


The Acting Registrar and Secretary to the Council, Mrs. Islamiyat Adulrahim, clarified that despite concerns raised during the appointment process, the council ensured that all issues were addressed with the participation of key stakeholders, including the university Senate and the local branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).


The statement reiterated that the council adhered strictly to the laws governing vice-chancellor appointments and worked diligently to resolve any disputes that arose during the transition. It also acknowledged the complaints from some parties but stressed that efforts were made to handle them amicably.


Furthermore, the council called for unity, urging that in a competitive process with 87 applicants, those not selected should show sportsmanship and support for the newly appointed Vice-Chancellor, who has been serving in an acting capacity for the past six months.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff.
