Nationwide strike asuu lasu demands payment of academic allowance

It seems like you're referring to a recent development in Nigeria. Here's a summary of the situation:

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at the Lagos State University (LASU) has called for a nationwide strike to demand the payment of academic allowance to its members. The strike, which began on Monday, February 27, 2023, has affected academic activities at LASU and other universities across the country.

According to reports, the ASUU LASU chapter is seeking the payment of the outstanding academic allowance, which is a component of the university's salary structure. The union claims that the allowance has not been paid since 2017, and that the non-payment has caused financial hardship for its members.

The strike has been met with resistance from the university management, which has accused the union of being irresponsible and disrupting the academic calendar. The management has also threatened to take disciplinary action against any staff member who participates in the strike.

The situation is still unfolding, and it remains to be seen how the strike will be resolved. In the meantime, students and staff at LASU and other affected universities are likely to face disruptions to their academic activities.

It's worth noting that this is not the first time ASUU has gone on strike in Nigeria. The union has a history of industrial actions to demand better working conditions, improved funding for universities, and the implementation of agreements with the government.
