The Academic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU) has joined other Nigerian workers to fully participate in the indefinite industrial action.
The union in a statement on Sunday, June 2 signed by its President, Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, directed all its members in various universities to mobilise members under their watch for compliance.
According to Osodeke, NLC has declared indefinite strike action beginning from Monday, 3rd June, 2024 as a result of the failure of government to conclude renegotiation of minimum wage for Nigerian wprkers and reversal of hike in electricity tariff.
Our branches are hereby enjoined to join in the strike action as an affiliate members of congress.
“Consequently, branch chairpersons are to mobilise all members to participate in the strike action.”
