Lautech begins two weeks warning strike over poor funding
It seems like there's an ongoing issue at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) in Nigeria. According to the report, the university's staff have embarked on a two-week warning strike due to poor funding.
Here's a summary of the situation:
- The strike was called by the Senior Staff Association of Universities, Technical and Research Institutions (SSAUTRI) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU) to protest the poor funding of the institution.
- The unions are demanding improved funding to enable the university to function effectively and provide quality education to students.
- The strike is expected to last for two weeks, during which time all academic activities will be suspended.
- The unions are also calling for the implementation of the 2019 agreement reached with the government, which includes the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances to staff.
It's unfortunate that the university is facing this challenge, and I hope that the strike will be resolved soon to minimize the impact on students and staff.
