Over the years, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has threatened to embark on industrial actions. This is due to government negligence in fulfilling their demands. Right now, several Nigerian institutions have embarked on industrial action over their demands not being met.
In this write-up, you’ll be getting a full list of schools that are on ASUU strike, federal schools under ASUU, and state universities under the ASUU. Without wasting time, let’s begin by examining the schools that are on ASUU strike.
List of Schools That Are On ASUU Strike
Here is a list of schools that are on ASUU strike today in Nigeria:
• Gombe State University
The Gombe State University ASUU chapter declared an indefinite strike over the failure of the state government to meet their demands.
The Gombe State University ASUU chairman revealed that the industrial action became necessary as a result of the poor learning conditions suffered by the staff of the institution.
According to the chairman, the non-payment of welfare funds for over five years made teaching difficult for the staff.
He further mentioned that they only read about the approval of funds on the pages of the newspaper, and nothing was disbursed to their accounts. Hence, the ASUU strike became necessary.
List Of Federal Universities That Are Not Under ASUU Strike
Here are schools that are not under ASUU. These schools did not partake in the last industrial strike embarked upon by ASUU.
• Federal University Wukari
• Rivers State University
• Ignatius Ajuru University of Education
• Kwara State University
• Lagos State University
• Osun State University
ASUU Strike Update Today
In the last concluded ASUU National Executive Council (NEC) meeting, most of the ASUU branches voted for the resumption of the ASUU strike. Recall that in September 2024, ASUU issued a 14-day ultimatum.
However, after the end of the ultimatum, ASUU revealed that they were not satisfied with the way the government had handled the negotiations.
As a result, this may be an indicator of a soon-to-come industrial action by the academic body.
Is ASUU going on strike tomorrow?
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) would embark on an industrial action if the Federal Government of Nigeria fails to meet its demands. However, be rest assured that before embarking on strike, a memo would be issued to all federal universities that are under the leadership of ASUU.
