Universities (SSANU), has directed its
members to embark on indefinite strike
from December 24, following the Federal
Government's directive to Vice-Chancellors
of universities to remove the names of
staff of their secondary schools from their
pay-roll.
The National Executive Council of SSANU
took the decision after its meeting in
Abuja.
Addressing journalists on the outcome of
its meeting, the National President of
SSANU, Comrade Samson Ugwoke, said
the action of the government to retrench
over 2,000 staff was contrary to the
Federal Government and SSANU
agreement of 2009.
Ugwoke said that SSANU had written the
Minister of Education, Malam Adamu
Adamu, urging him to order the
immediate withdrawal of all letters from
the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages
Commission, National Universities
Commission and the Federal Ministry of
Education directing Vice-Chancellors to
remove personnel of the University Staff
Primary Schools from the pay-roll.
