Workers’ Group Asks Nigerian University Lecturers, ASUU To Declare Nationwide Protest, Strike Over Half SalariesDamilola Owot, secretary of the group in a statement on Wednesday also condemned the government for refusing to pay ASUU its backlog of salaries.

“While ASUU-UNIJOS has taken this bold step, we call on the National Executive Committee of the ASUU to immediately commence a nationwide mass action that will cut across all its branches and chapters in order to compel the full payments of October salary and the 8 months arrears.

“If the government really cared and was committed towards advancing the education sector, it would instantly meet the demands of workers. They are the ones who receive direct feedback from the field, understand the weaknesses and strengths of the sector, and are able to implement the changes we need and bring about the advancement and improvements working people desire.
