The University of Ibadan (UI) Oyo State, has directed its staff to work for three days a week due to the subsidy removal.

This was made known in a statement signed by Registrar and Secretary to Council, UI, G.O. Saliu.

“The astronomical increase in the fuel pump price occasioned by the removal of subsidy by the Federal Government has imposed huge economic difficulties on the generality of Nigerians.

“Salary earners who have to commute to work every working day are faced with an aggravation of the condition, given the attendant hike in the transport fare and cost of living.

“After careful consideration of the situation, the University Management recommended a temporary work schedule adjustment for members of staff, which Senate at its meeting of Thursday, 03 August 2023 considered and approved.
