Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has ordered the dismissal of Kaduna State University’s lecturers who join other workers on strike in the state.

He made this known in a press statement by his media aide, Muyiwa Adekeye, on Tuesday, titled, ‘KDSG will not tolerate criminal acts disguised as industrial action’.

The organised labour have been in a running battle with the El-Rufai led government over the sack teachers and other local government workers recently.

As a result, workers in various sectors have solidarised with the labour calling the government inhumane names for its massive layoff of workers amidst insecurity challenges in the state.

The government is creating an attendance register to check I any worker in the university joins the industrial action.

Part of the statement read, “Any academic staff of KASU that does not report for work will be dismissed. The authorities of KASU are to submit a copy of the attendance register for all categories of staff daily to the Secretary to the State Governemnt and the Commissioner of Education.

“All MDAs are also to submit daily copies of attendance register to the Head of Service;
