The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Abuja zone, expressed deep sorrow on Monday over the loss of several of its members due to economic hardship, inadequate remuneration, and unfavorable working conditions prevailing in the country.

According to ASUU, at least 46 academics have passed away in universities within the Abuja zone, including the University of Abuja, Federal University of Technology Minna, Federal University Lafia, Nasarawa State University Nasarawa, and Ibrahim Babaginda University, Lapai.

Salahu Muhammed, the Zonal Coordinator of ASUU, Abuja zone, conveyed these concerns in a statement released to the press in Abuja.

He emphasized the adverse impact of poor remuneration and working conditions on the mental and physical well-being of academic staff, noting that many have succumbed to the pressure, stress, and associated health issues.

“The loss of 46 members within universities in the Abuja zone underscores the severity of the situation,” Muhammed said.

I pity those people and most civil servants. Could you imagine people with families earning less than 200k in this economy?

Hardship. A country with so many professor's but no manufacturing base. Imagine senators importing jeep at N180million and feeling shameless about it. Next thing some idiot will say it's cheaper to import cars than manufacturing locally , then back up such senseless policy with unproven economic jargons . Am sure the central bank Governor has started to understand that Havard training is not sufficient in Nigeria.

So it was Tinubu administration that came in about nine months or so that caused it.
Nobody talks about the former administration who never listened to them for good eight months This new administration even have listening ear paying at least 2 months out of seven months promised. Why are Nigerians so difficult to rule.
RIP to the dead. It's just unfortunate.
