The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has expressed dissatisfaction with the Federal Government over its demands, and declares a “comprehensive, total and indefinite” strike.
Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, ASUU President made this known in a statement issued at the end of the Union National Executive Council (NEC) emergency meeting on Tuesday in Abuja.
Recall that the lecturers have been on strike since Feb. 14, over alleged failure of the government to keep to agreements entered with the unions.
The demands of the striking lecturers include issues bordering on funding of universities, salaries and earned allowances of lecturers, among others.
Osodeke said that the meeting was called to review developments since its last resolution that rolled over the nationwide strike action for another four weeks starting from Aug 1.
