The Academic Staff Union Of Universities, University of Lagos Branch, set to draw the attention of Nigerians to the Federal Government’s attempt to casualize the academia.

In regards to this development,  Chairman, ASUU UNILAG, Dr Dele Ashiru, said a protest rally, titled, ‘The casualization of intellectualism in Nigeria,’ would hold today, on UNILAG campus to inform Nigerians about the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige’s position on the crisis.
