The decision to embark on strike was reached at the end of the union’s meeting, on Wednesday.
Speaking with newsmen, the ASUU chairman of the institution, Deji Agboola, alleged that the visitor to the school and the governor of the state, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, the Governing Council and the institution’s authorities refused to take action of their demands.
