The union also said that it does not work on the basis of tribe
or religion in pursuing its aims and objectives.
ASUU Calabar zone made this clarification in a statement
issued in Umuahia, yesterday. by its coordinator, Dr. Charlie
Ononuju in reaction to a certain publication which accused
the union of being used by the APC.
Ononuju described the publication as "entirely false and
misleading [as] the union is not and cannot be influenced by
any political party.
The union embarked this national strike to secure the furniture
education of the Nigerian child".
According to him, "It has nothing to do with politics, religion
or where one comes from as being canvassed. The union is
democratic and all issues and decisions are democratically
resolved and taken.
"The zone urges the group [that made the publication] to
jettison the propaganda and call on all well-meaning
Nigerians to the blackmail.
"The members and leaders of the union shall continue to think
and act in the interest of the people of Nigeria, irrespective of
ethnic, religious and regional affiliation".
