Police Arrest 70 FUTA Union Members
The leadership of the Senior Staff Association of Nigeria University (SSANU) and Non Academic Staff Union (NASU) of the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) yesterday alleged that 70 of its members were arrested by the police.
NASU Chairman, Adebayo Aladerotohun said since Monday, the police had been laying ambush for members at the school gate and some were arrested at their homes.
Aladerotohun said most of them were arraigned in court.
“I couldn’t get near the court because information available to us showed that the two union leaders are the target of arrest but I will get across to you immediately we have information,” he said.
Confirming the development, police spokesman Femi Joseph said those arrested were disturbing the peace in the institution
