The Management of Kaduna State University, KASU, has assured students, parents, staff and other stakeholders that the institution remains open and committed to sustaining academic activities despite the industrial action by affiliate unions.
The university said the ongoing industrial action did not amount to the closure of the institution, urging students to continue attending lectures and participating in scheduled academic activities.
This was contained in a statement issued by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Abdullahi Ibrahim Musa, on Friday.
Musa reassured the university community that academic activities were ongoing, encouraging students to remain calm, focused and committed to their studies.

Management also expressed appreciation to the state governor and Visitor to the University, Senator Uba Sani, for his continued commitment and interventions towards improving the welfare and working conditions of both academic and non-teaching staff.
