‘Why NASU, SSANU extend warning strike by another one month’

The strike by the Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities; and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and allied institutions have been extended by another one month.

This was disclosed by the unions in a circular jointly signed by its National President, Muhammed Ibrahim, and the General Secretary, Peters Adeyemi, SSANU.

They said the decision to extend the strike was to give more time for all demands to be met.

SSANU and NASU, like the Academic Staff Union of Universities, had declared a strike following the failure of the government to meet some of their lingering.

The statement said, “In view of the fact that most of the issues in contention have not been resolved as the process of resolving same is ongoing and to allow the process to be concluded, we hereby direct that the ongoing strike be elongated by one month.

“Hopefully, all processes would have been concluded and all issues in dispute favorably resolved.”

The unions demands include the inconsistent issue of Integrated Payroll and Personnel information system, unpaid earned allowances and delay in the renegotiation of FGN, NASU, SSANU agreement as well as non-payment of minimum wage arrears. CONTINUE READING.
