Non-academic staff begin Protests, Fresh strike looms in Nigeria Universities by Elchicolo(op): 8:45pm On Jul 12, 2019
Non-academic staff of Nigerian universities will on Monday begin a three-day nationwide protest as a notice of their intention to go on an indefinite strike over the failure of the federal government to implement its agreement with them.

The agitation by the non-teaching staff is coming four months after their colleagues in the Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities (ASUU) suspended their two-month strike.

The non-academic unions, comprising the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU), said the agreement now in contention had made them suspend their own industrial action in March last year.

According to the chairman of the Joint Action Committee of the unions, Samson Ugwoke, the protest will precede the resumption of the strike.

”We are directing our members to mobilise for a protest on 15th July to send a notice of strike to the federal government, ” he said.

The unions had embarked on a nationwide strike on December 4, 2017, following the failure of the government to address their grievances. That strike was suspended in March 2018.

The former Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, had said then that the government would source for N8 billion within five weeks to pay the striking workers.

The minister announced this as a resolution reached at a meeting on March 13, 2018.

But the unions during their protest in 2018 said the delay in the payment of Earned Allowances had become a source of discomfort and agitation by their members and a source of embarrassment for their leaders.

Fvck dem all. Let dem go ahead with the strike. They just keep destabilizing students with strike threat everyday.
If strike will solve Nigeria's educational problems, it would have long ago. They know this, but all they are fighting for is their pocket and don't give a damn about the students.

Says who? You can learn in unswept and stinking lecture halls? Use filthy and oozing conveniences? Live and learn with assorted reptiles due to uncut grasses and lawns?... Every university staff member has his niche of importance.

When will we ever get it right in Nigeria?......

A strike that will end up not yielding any positive results

Meanwhile soon one of our minister's sons and daughters will be graduating with first class in Cambridge or Oxford University.....
