The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)
has embarked on an another indefinite strike
following the failure of the federal government to
implement part of the 2009 agreement reached by
the two parties.
The union’s demands include upward review of
retirement age for Professors from 65 to 70, adequate
funding to revitalise the university system,
progressive increase of budgetary allocations to
education by 26 per cent, transfer of Federal
Government property to universities, setting up of
research and development units by companies,
payment of earned allowances and renegotiation of
the signed agreement
More to follow....
