“The Joint Action Committee of the two unions has approved protests at the branches and zonal levels of our unions, and mother of all protests in Abuja for three days.” Nigeria

This time, the three non-academic unions in the universities – Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities , Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities and Associated Institutions , and National Association of Academic Technologist , are beating the drums of industrial action.

Ugwoke hinted that while the unions are at war with the Government over these issues, they are pleased to allow the implementation of the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System that will incorporate the nuances of the university system. Ugwoke alleged that the leaderships of both NASU and SSANU have not been carried along from registration of the firm to employment of staff that was unilaterally done by ASUU.He also alleged that the PFA would not be in a position to sustain the payment of retirement benefits to ASUU members, saying the teaching staff union had perfected a plan to ensure that professors retire with their salaries, which will be too high for the PFA to execute.

Meanwhile, a ray of hope was beamed by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawal, at the weekend, as he scheduled a meeting where it is hoped that an acceptable intervention would be made.
