The Academic Staff Union of Universities
(ASUU) has commenced indefinite strike

ASUU, Dr Nasir Isa Fagge has said.
He made this declaration, Monday, at the
University of Lagos (UNILAG) after their NEC
meeting held at Olabisi Onabanjo
University, Ago Iwoye, Ogun State.
Speaking to news men, he said: “We are
embarking on indefinite strike nation wide
because the Federal Government reneged in
the Memorandum of Understanding MoU
signed with ASUU in 2009 to pay lecturers
their earn allowance.”
According to Fagge, the Federal
Government, in 2009 made a law to pay
each lecturers N12,500 per month as earn
allowance which it never did since 2009.
