  "summary": "The Osun State Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) are in disagreement over the tenure extension of the Vice-Chancellor of Osun State University (UNIOSUN), Professor Clement Odunayo Adebooye. According to the state government, Governor Ademola Adeleke approved a two-year extension for Prof Adebooye, with his current tenure remaining valid until January 2027.\n\nASUU, however, has faulted the process, arguing that the extension violates provisions of the Universities Miscellaneous Act referenced in the 2025 Federal Government-ASUU Agreement. The union, at an Emergency National Executive Council meeting, directed the UNIOSUN branch to mobilise its members against what it termed a violation of the law.\n\nASUU has also resolved to constitute a visitation team to investigate the circumstances surrounding the extension. The union mandated its branch to \"go back and mobilise to respond courageously to the flagrant violation of the Miscellaneous Act.\"",
