      The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has elected Prof. Chris Piwuna, a consultant psychiatrist at the University of Jos Teaching Hospital, as its new national president.

      Prof. Piwuna, who also serves as the Dean of Student Affairs at the University of Jos, succeeds Prof. Victor Osodeke, a soil science expert from the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State.

       

      The leadership transition was decided at the union’s 23rd National Delegates Congress, held on Sunday in Benin City, Edo State.

       

      Sources confirmed that the election was contested between Prof. Piwuna and Prof. Adamu Babayo of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi.

       

      Prof. Piwuna steps into office at a critical time, as the academic union faces mounting tensions over unresolved issues such as the sharing formula of the recently released Earned Academic Allowances by the Federal Government, ongoing concerns around brain drain, and the lingering threat of industrial action.

       

      More details to follow.
