ASUU,UNN declares total strike, Universities on high alert
We cannot continue to engage in discussions that lead nowhere,” an ASUU source stated. “The time for action has come, and we are prepared to stand firm until our demands are met.” Further details on the strike and its potential consequences for students and faculty are expected to emerge in the coming days.
In a significant development for higher education in Nigeria, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) has resolved to embark on a complete and comprehensive strike.
This decision comes after prolonged frustrations with the Federal Government over unmet demands.
Sources within ASUU at UNN revealed that union members have grown weary of ongoing negotiations, expressing their unwillingness to continue the back-and-forth discussions that have yielded little progress.
The strike is rooted in long-standing grievances, primarily revolving around an agreement made with the Federal Government in 2009, which officials have repeatedly failed to honor.
