The Academic
Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) may begin a two-week strike if a
referendum it is conducting among its members across public universities in Nigeria enjoys the support of majority of its members.
According
to information gathered the union is asking its members if the union
should begin another strike following alleged failure of the federal
government to faithfully implement the 2009 agreements and 2013
Memorandum of Understanding it signed with the union.
The
academic union says the federal government is owing universities over
N880billion intervention fund. As a result, the union conducted a
nationwide referendum on whether to resume its suspended strike action
or not.
