The Senior Staff Association of Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) have declared an indefinite strike beginning from February 5.
Announcing the decision on Friday in Abuja, the spokesperson of the joint action committee of SSANU and NASU, Peters Adeyemi, in a statement, explained that the Federal Government reneged on their October 2020 agreement where all parties agreed to address the issues leading to the strike.
Adeyemi further added that a 2 weeks’ notice effective from Friday has been given to the government and relevant stakeholders.
The striking non-teaching staff is demanding that their members be taken off the government’s Integrated Personnel Payroll Information (IPPIS) as well as review the sharing formula for the universities earned allowances between the teaching and non-teaching staff of the universities.
