 Kaduna State University Resumes Academic Activities Following Government Intervention

The management of Kaduna State University (KASU) has announced the immediate resumption of academic activities following the suspension of strike action by the institution’s branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

Addressing a press conference in his office on Thursday, the Vice Chancellor of KASU, Professor Abdullahi Ibrahim Musa, stated that Governor Uba Sani has approved a ₦50 million monthly standing order to support staff welfare and has set up a negotiation team to resolve lingering issues.

He further disclosed that the governor has released ₦146 million for the payment of some withheld salaries and Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) allowances.

The Vice Chancellor also revealed that the governor approved the retention of a certain percentage of the university’s Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), after verification of collections, to enhance financial autonomy.

“These measures are not only bold but unprecedented in the recent history of the university. The management commends His Excellency for his extraordinary sensitivity to the plight of students, the condition of education, and the welfare of academic and non-academic staff,” he said.

Professor Musa added that the government has constituted a high-level negotiation team to maintain dialogue with all university unions in addressing unresolved issues.

According to him, the committee is chaired by the Deputy Governor, Dr. Hadiza Balarabe, with other senior government officials serving as members.

Professor Musa emphasized that Governor Uba Sani “has demonstrated deep sensitivity to the long-standing challenges faced by university staff—many of which date back over a decade and were inherited from previous administrations.”

He noted that as Visitor to the university, the governor “has shown exceptional leadership and commitment to education in the state, taking direct steps to address the challenges facing the institution.”

“The Kaduna State Government, under the compassionate and responsive leadership of Governor Uba Sani, has provided a path forward grounded in transparency, goodwill, and action.

“The swift financial interventions, structural reforms, and invitation to dialogue reflect an administration that deeply values education and its role in development,” he added.

The Vice Chancellor called on parents, guardians, students, staff, and the general public to support the government’s efforts, adding, “Together, we can return Kaduna State University to its rightful place as a center of learning, progress, and hope.”
