The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational Associated Institutions, and the National Association of Academic Technologists of the University will end the ongoing seven-day and three-day warning strike by midnight, Sunday, respectively.
JAC of SSANU and NASU had for about a month called the attention of the government to its exclusion from the payment of the withheld salaries, which it commenced payment for the Academic Staff Union of Universities in February.
Their salaries were withheld when the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari invoked a ‘No Work, No Pay policy’ against ASUU, SSANU, NAATS who embarked on a strike that lasted eight months, four months, and five-and-half months respectively in 2022.
NAATS also joined and began its three-day warning strike on Wednesday.
Speaking on Sunday during a Zoom meeting with journalists, the National President, JAC of SSANU and NASU, Mr Mohammed Ibrahim, explained that all the unions would resume on Monday.
He, however, lamented that the government had yet to respond to the unions’ demands.
