The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) is ready to resume its nationwide strike if they don’t reach an agreement with the Federal Government at the end of a one-month ultimatum.
ASUU Kano Zonal Coordinator, Abdulkadir Muhammad, stated this during a news conference after the zone’s meeting.
The lecturers in October suspended their warning strike with a month-long ultimatum to the Federal Government to meet their demands, which centred around their welfare and providing a conducive teaching and learning environment.
Muhammad decried what he described as a sluggish approach to renegotiating key agreements aimed at revitalising Nigeria’s public university system.
“However, our hope for a holistic and timely resolution of the issues is increasingly being dashed.
“It is unfortunate that some government functionaries employ different tactics to undermine the renegotiation process and misinform the public on the state of our engagements,” he told newsmen.
