SSANU TO EMBARK ON NATIONWIDE STRIKE

Fresh Strike Looms in Nigerian
Universities (SHARE THIS)
The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian
Universities (SSANU) has threatened to
embark on a nationwide strike next
month over a circular by the National
Universities Commission (NUC), which it
alleged to unilaterally expunge the
agreement on university demonstration
staff schools.
In the communiqué signed by its
President, Samson Ugwoke, and Public
Relations Officer, Mr. N.A.D. Aboribo,
SSANU warned the NUC to stop it’s undue
meddling in the affairs of universities.
“SSANU called for the full implementation
and renegotiation of the 2009 agreement
to forestall the disruption of the present
smooth academic activities in the
university system. We view with very
grave concern, the actions of some
government agencies in collaboration
with certain selfish vice-chancellors to
obliterate the sanctity of the 2009 FGN/
university-based unions’ agreement by
unilaterally expunging through a circular
from the NUC the aspect of the agreement
on university demonstration staff schools.
“SSANU-NEC-in-session hereby demands
the immediate withdrawal of the
obnoxious circular. For the avoidance of
doubt, if by April 28, 2015, the circular
has not been withdrawn by the NUC, the
union will take labour action against the
Federal Government. We frown on the
overbearing attitude and unnecessary
roles of the NIC in this regard.” it added.
