Despite the threat of the No-Work-No-Pay directive by the Federal Government, The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Education and Associated Institutions have extended their warning strike by two weeks.
The non-academic workers had commenced a two-week warning strike on March 27 over the inability of the Federal Government to meet their demands.
The circular signed by SSANU President, Mohammed Ibrahim, and NASU General Secretary, Peters Adeyemi on Friday stated that due to the failure of the Federal Government to act positively on the ongoing warning strike, JAC hereby directs members of NASU and SSANU to continue with the warning strike for another two weeks, hoping that within the period the government will be in a position to address these issues.
They also noted that if the present situation persists, members of NASU and SSANU will be adequately informed about the next line of action before the expiration of the additional two weeks.
meanwhile, the minister of labor and employment, Chris Ngige has threatened the university workers with No-work-No-pay directives, stating that there would be no payment for any employees on strike or absent from duty post without due authorization.
