    ASUU wielded the big stick following what it called University of Ilorin administration persistent acts of lawless, arbitrariness, violation of human and trade union rights and persecution of loyal members.
    Also, University of Ilorin academic staff will also not be allowed to carry out any academic activity on any public universities in Nigeria.

    “Despite all intervention efforts by the Academic Staff Union of Universities since 2001, the University of Ilorin administration has persisted in acts of lawlessness, arbitrariness, violation of human and trade union rights, and persecution of loyal members.
    “Contrary to the law and despite the ruling of the National Industrial Court, the University has continued to prevent the Union from functioning on its campus.
    “The University has also continued to forcefully collect check-off money from academics of the university in the name of the Union without remitting it to the Union. The Union is therefore bound to protect the principles of democracy and the exercise of freedom in the academia, and also insist on the right to function through its own accredited representatives on Nigerian University campuses,” he added.
    According to him, NEC at its meeting at the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, recognized distinct groups that have emerged in creating and prolonging the crisis at the University of Ilorin.
    He said these include the following: principal officers of University of Ilorin, administration members of previous University of Ilorin, administration who were and are still active in generating and sustaining the crisis and members of the illegal “excos” from 2001 to 2014; Others were members of the current illegal “exco”; and other academics of the University of Ilorin who are aiding and abetting the crisis and illegality.
    “For the avoidance of doubt, academic staff of the University of Ilorin should not participate in any of the above listed academic activities in other Nigerian public Universities.
    “Similarly, academic staff of other Nigerian public Universities shall not participate in any of the listed activities in the University of Ilorin.
    “These sanctions shall be complied with by all members of the Union, including those who may be serving in private Universities during the period of the sanctions,” Omole said.
