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 president.
Piwuna, who also serves as the Dean of Student Affairs at the University of Jos, succeeds Prof. Victor Osodeke, a Professor of Soil Science from Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State.
The election was held during the 23rd National Delegates Congress of the Union, which took place in Benin on Sunday.
The election saw Piwuna contesting against Prof. Adamu Babayo of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi, as reported by sources familiar with the proceedings.
Piwuna’s appointment comes at a time when there are speculations of potential industrial action, due to issues surrounding the distribution of Earned Academic Allowances recently issued by the Federal Government, concerns over brain drain, and other challenges within the education sector.
