The Academic Staff Union of University, Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike chapter has vindicated professor Edeoga on the allegations leveled against him. The Union in a three page article published on Eastern Reckoner newspaper on Monday 20th July dismissed the allegation as a product of mischief makers who are pursuing personal interest rather than promoting the interest of the union. The union made it clear that Prof Edeoga has worked beyond imagination within four years of stay in the office thereby calling on anyone who is in doubt to visit the university to verify the tenacity of its claim.
According to the ASUU members, Prof Edeoga has never admitted students beyond the capacity of infrastructure adding that the issue of the hostel fees has been addressed as those oversubscribed has the option of being refunded their money or carry it over to the next academic session as NDDC hostel has been completed and handed over to the university management.
The concerned members of ASUU was baffled that instead of applauding the Vice Chancellor on his numerous achievements, he was maligned even as he is not owing salaries nor have union gone on strike as a result of low staff and student welfare.
ASUU passed vote of confidence on the VC as they describe him as a detribalized Nigerian and a great achiever who is contributing in great measures in repositioning education in Nigeria.
