ASUU begins four-week warning strike nationwide

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has commenced a four-week nationwide strike.

Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA), for instance, is billed to commence first semester examinations by the end of this month.

Also, UNILAG students were preparing to start their examinations after hosting the National University Games Association (NUGA) in March.

The latest strike action is a continuation of a nine-month strike that grounded academic activities 2020 for the same reasons.

The lecturers threatened to embark on another round of industrial action following the alleged “government’s unfaithfulness” in the implementation of the Memorandum of Action it signed.
