The acting executive secretary of the National Universities Commission, NUC, Chris Maiyaki, has hinted that the Federal Government is working out modalities to reconstitute the governing councils of universities.

He gave the hint on Wednesday while reacting to the strike threat issued by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU , over the alleged recalcitrance of the Federal Government to constitute the councils. Maiyaki confirmed that the Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman, has put in place a panel to work on the list. According to the NUC boss, the councils would be inaugurated once the list was consummated.

recalls that ASUU held a media briefing at its headquarters in Abuja to lament the failed promises from the Tinubu-led administration, citing the unnecessary delays in constituting the governing councils of universities. It had also complained of the dearth of academic staff across the country, owing mostly to the government's economic policies.
