This was disclosed in a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Niyi Sunmonu, and the National Publicity Secretary, Ernest Nwoke, and made available toThe union reiterated that it was not a part of the decision to embark on the ongoing strike by ASUU.“The Congress of University Academics would like to seize this opportunity to announce its independence as a union of academic staff in Nigeria’s public universities.
The union added, “Our strongly-held view is that strikes wreak great havoc on the university system, and the concessions that are earned after every strike, over the decades, have amounted to pyrrhic victories when weighed against the systematic destruction of the local and global image of university education in Nigeria. Our preferred alternatives to strikes in resolving industrial disputes, therefore, include constructive engagement and constant dialogue with all stakeholders.
“As CONUA, we are of the strong belief that strikes should never be a strategy of first recourse. Their deployment should be contemplated only when all other options have failed, and they should not appear to be motivated by a desire to cause maximum damage.” The union noted that its members continued with academic activities at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, and Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma after the strike declared by ASUU.
“In fact, before the incident, which caused the students to be asked to vacate the campus, most of our members had concluded their lectures. Since it wasn’t our members who declared a strike, lumping us together with those who are on strike is therefore patently unfair,” it said.
That is Buhari/ Ngige's faction made of 'certificateless' and half baked hirelings!
Will they collect their full salaries?
The leadership of asuu is benefiting not all academic staff of universities. They should be investigated , leadership is about navigating from emerging crisis .
Uhm
Good!
The trouble has started. The end of the stike is coming. God bless Nigeria.
ASUUNGR is ASUUNGR nothing like faction in ASUU, those claiming to be a faction of ASUU are the lazy lecturers who can't engage in researches to improve themselves academically.
Bribe don enter the group, division is inevitable. We shall see
Where was the association,all this while?. Just a bunch of noise makers. ASUU,in the fullness of time, would blacklist the members ,as comeuppance for contumacy and conspiracy
Me no understand oo
Nigeria my country... This once have received credit alert
Illegal association. ASUUNGR is the only known legitimate association of university teachers.
The same Fulani tactic, divide and rule.
ASUU and FG are making money from this strike Registration of CONUE is the simplest way of ending the strike but is like FG don't want to end the strike
Nigeria factor in everything
Lol...that's what govt can do, create factions and destabilize the oneness of the organizations.

ASUU dissociates, dissociation deactivate kini gbogbo eyi. ASUU no do again talk to us straight forward ahbegi..
This proves it they are not all fighting the righteous fight as they claim
Noise makers. We stand with ASUU and educational system in Nigeria must to be revamped. The only why FG can give attention to education is via strike. How many agreement FG took but doesn't fulfill it?
This is what I call cowardice. Finish what you started. You why you shouldn't have started at all.

Pls who understands what’s going on here🙄
Politicians have infiltrated the union body. MBuhari OfficialAPCNg NigeriaGov has succeeded in buying off the greedy ones among them. They're making a grave mistake! I believe they've been bribed to take this stand. Anyway, will not break the resolve of the main body!!
This is too much abeg. This people get family oooo.
Was this the Tinubu plan?
After how many months? This is the handiwork of the government, to create division in ASUU. We've gone pass this stage of deceitful acts. Come 26/27 July, Labour Unions will commence a solidarity strike. We should not allow this happen. Finally Buhari has promised to intervene.
Abeg most people nor understand your English ... you fit speak am for PIDGIN
Ahh.. This is so sad 😭 Even me no understand but na sad news 🤣
Cut the chase. Have they called off the ongoing strike ?
Even in an Organization such as ASUU there's still a Faction. No wonder why the Federal Government is not taking them serious all this while. Very sad!
This will not augur well for public education if ASUU allowed politicians to factionalize its ranks.
Better... 'To whom it may concern' 🤣🤣🤣
Make somebody translate this thing to Nigeria English abeg Koyemi
