The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has rejected the promotion of Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Ibrahim Pantami as a Professor of cyber security by the management of the Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO).
ASUU President Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, while addressing journalists in Lagos on Monday at the end of its two-day meeting of the National Executive Council(NEC) declared the promotion as ‘llegal.’
