BREAKING: ASUU Declares Two-Week Warning Strike

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has declared a two-week warning strike, effective from Monday, February 14, 2022. This decision was taken after the union's National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, which was held on Sunday, February 13, 2022.

According to reports, the strike is a response to the federal government's failure to meet the union's demands, including the implementation of the 2009 FGN-ASUU agreement, the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances, and the provision of infrastructure in universities.

ASUU has given the federal government a two-week ultimatum to address its concerns and meet its demands. If the government fails to do so, the union may proceed with a full-scale strike, which could disrupt academic activities in Nigerian universities.

The warning strike is expected to affect all public universities in Nigeria, including the University of Lagos, University of Ibadan, University of Benin, and many others.

This development comes at a time when Nigerian universities are already facing challenges, including inadequate funding, poor infrastructure, and a shortage of academic staff.

The ASUU strike has the potential to disrupt the academic calendar and affect the plans of students, parents, and other stakeholders. It remains to be seen whether the federal government will take immediate action to address the union's concerns and prevent a full-scale strike.

Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
