The leadership of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU) have declared a seven-day warning strike.

The Unions, in a statement dated March 15, directed their members across university and inter-university centres nationwide to withdraw services beginning from today Monday, March 18, 2024.

The labour union said the strike is due to the failure of the Federal Government to address issues raised and the expiration of the ultimatum earlier issued to the government.

The statement, which was issued by the Joint Action Committee (JAC) of both SSANU and NASU, and signed by the National President of SSANU, Mohammed Ibrahim, and the General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, urged the branch leaders to ensure total compliance to the directive.
