The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, SSANU, and the Non Academic Staff Union (NASU) have issued a strike notice, signaling industrial action over the ongoing renegotiation of the 2009 salary structure agreement for university workers.
The unions cited unresolved issues regarding the full implementation of the 2009 agreement as the primary cause of their planned action.
Both SSANU and NASU said that “repeated calls for dialogue with the federal government have not yielded meaningful progress, leaving workers frustrated”.
In a joint statement, the unions warned that the strike would commence if the federal authorities fail to meet their demands, urging the government to urgently address the concerns of university staff to prevent disruption to academic activities nationwide.
They expressed concern over the potential impact on students’ academic calendars, as prolonged industrial actions in the education sector often lead to delays in examinations and session timelines.
This development adds to a growing list of labor disputes in Nigeria’s tertiary education sector, highlighting persistent challenges in staff welfare and government union relations.
