N138m Fraud Rocks Asuu in Unical

A crisis of non -remittance of the sum of N138 million control quotas is presenting beer at the chapter of the University of the Union of University Academy (Asuu).

Freedomonline reports that the alleged fraud dates back to 2019 under the guidance of the immediate past of the chapter led by dr. John Edor.

The non -remittance of these shares to the Union National Secretariat led to the suspension of the chapter by the Asuu national leadership.

Freedomonline also reports that the fraud has been formally presented to the National Industrial Court of Nigeria for the determination pursuant to cause no. Nicn/Ca/44/2025.

The judicial action was established by some teachers interested in the University, with dr. John Inku and nine others as complaints, while Asuu (national) and two others are charged.

Applicants are looking for 15 relief from the National Industrial Court, including a declaration that cannot reimburse or put the control quotas already deducted from their salaries again.

They are also looking for an order that directs the first accused to immediately lift the suspension of the second accused and restore all the rights, privileges and performances due to complaints as members of Asuu.

Furthermore, they want the Court to dirig the third accused (Dr. John Edor) to make a real report of all the shares collected during his mandate.

Furthermore, they want that the Court builds the third accused to reimburse the sum of N138, 782,840.97 not put back to the first accused by him or by a sum that can be found due to the surrender of the accounts for the remittance of the same defendant.

They also sought the order of the Court who directed the first defendant to take disciplinary actions against the third accused in line with the law on the Constitution and on the unions Asuu.

They have sought an order that prevents the defendants from adopting punitive measures or actions against applicants due to the cause or whatever it relates to the issue.

In addition, applicants also want the Court to order the first accused to pay the applicants of the Sun of N150, 000, 000.00 (only one hundred and fifty million Naira) being general damage

They also sought an order that imposed on the third accused to pay the applicants the sum of #50,000, 000.00 (only fifty million naira) being general damage.

They also requested an order of 21 % of annual interest on the sum of the judgment until the same is liquidated by the defendants and a special damage of N5 million.

When he was contacted, Edor said he was aware of the matter and observed that there were mechanisms to resolve these issues.

According to him, they are aware of the accusations. But there are internal mechanism and adjustment processes or addresses of these issues in the Union. So I recommend to anyone who is damaged to follow the process.
