Protesting University Workers
As means to demand the immediate release of their withheld salaries, members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU), on Tuesday, July 9, staged nationwide protests within campuses of public universities.
NASU National President, Makolo Hassan, had on Monday stated that there was no going back on Tuesday’s demonstrations.
This is as both unions claimed that the Federal Government of Nigeria had failed to address their demands following their warning strike some months back.
Nation reports that at the Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria, Kaduna state, placard-carrying non-academic staff members had several inscriptions on their placards as they marched around the university campus.
They called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to release their withheld salaries and implement their other outstanding demands.
Also, at the Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO), in Imo state, displeased workers marched around the university community to press home their demands.
Today’s protests followed the expiration of a two-week ultimatum handed to the Federal Government of Nigeria, by NASU and SSANU in June.
