The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Nsukka Zone has criticized the alleged attempt by the management of Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) to use the military to force students to write the 2019/2020 first semester examination.

Zonal Coordinator of Nsukka zone, Dr Igbana Ajir while condemning the recent move by the Vice-chancellor, Prof Charles Eze in calling the military to conduct examinations in the institution, maintained that the act was barbaric and negates the civil university traditions.

“The attempt to use military men to force students to write the examination in ESUT is totally unacceptable and condemnable. The union will not hesitate to deploy relevant instruments to sanction ESUT if the institution continues to pressure and deny salary to our members who oppose this uncivil act,” he said.
