The suspension letter of the officials was titled, "Suspension of some SSANU members in University of Abuja” dated April 12, was addressed to the vice chancellor of the institution accused the suspended members of holding illegal
congress.

In the letter, SSANU asked the university management to henceforth stop any remittance of check-off dues of the affected members to the union.
