NASU to Begin 14-Days Warning Strike

94

Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU) has said it will begin a 14-day warning strike in all Federal Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education, over the shortfall in payment of its members’ salaries.

The union said the strike takes effect from the date of the resumption of work in all the mentioned institutions.

This is coming two months after the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) began its strike.

NASU went on strike last in August 2019 over the government’s failure to resolve issues that included the renegotiation of 2009 agreements, payment of earned allowances among others.

In a statement Monday night, the general secretary of the union, Peters Adeyemi, said the non-teaching staff union is protesting the short-payment of its members’ salaries since February 2020 through the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS).
