The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has disclaimed all disengagement letters issued in the last couple of weeks to workers in the state-owned Ambrose Alli University (AAU), Ekpoma, insisting that they are illegal, null and void.
In a statement by Special Adviser on Media Projects to the Governor, Crusoe Osagie, on Tuesday, the governor maintained that his administration’s commitment to workers’ welfare in the university remains sacrosanct and hasn’t sanctioned this action.
“He(Obaseki) has ordered an investigation of the issue and action would be taken swiftly on anyone culpable,” Mr. Osagie added.
The state government assured that it upholds the interest of the university workers and would continue to position the state as a suitable place to live and work.
