ASUU Issues New Strike Threat Due to Government’s Failure to Implement Agreements
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has indicated that a strike is not imminent if the Nigerian government implements the agreements reached within the next two weeks.
ASUU President Prof Emmanuel Osodeke emphasized in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria that none of the agreements with the Federal Government have been put into effect.
He stated that after a recent meeting with the Minister of Education, it was agreed to reconvene in two weeks to assess the government’s progress.
Osodeke highlighted longstanding issues such as the non-implementation of renegotiated agreements since 2009, unpaid academic allowances spanning over six years, and the inadequate release of revitalization funds meant to enhance university standards.
