ASUU: We’re Gearing Up For A Nationwide Strike

The Nigerian university lecturers’ group, ASUU, stated that the decision to go on strike was made in protest of the government’s inability to name Governing Councils for Federal Universities.

Threatening to go on a statewide strike is the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

The Nigerian university lecturers’ group, ASUU, stated that the decision to go on strike was made in protest of the government’s inability to name Governing Councils for Federal Universities.

ASUU President Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke bemoaned, among other unresolved concerns, the lack of governing councils at all federal universities in the nation during a continuing briefing at the ASUU national secretariat in Abuja.

The union also lamented the 35 per cent salary increment for professors and the 25 per cent salary increment for other university academics, describing it as a wage award that could be suspended by the government at any time.

Strike can be a solution to employee problems, but dialogue and negotiation can be used as an alternative to strike. 

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
