The Federal University of Technology , Minna Branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities has deplored the Federal Government’s alleged shaky posture toward robust engagements that could guarantee improved funding of universities and conditions of service for a productive and competitive university system.

He advised that to avert a nationwide strike by ASUU in the event of lack of agreement, the government should urgently commence the payment of all withheld salaries, promotion arrears, and earned academic allowances. Recalling that ASUU embarked on an eight-month-long strike in 2022 to compel the government to live up to its responsibilities, he added that the industrial action was suspended following the Industrial Court injunction obtained by then Minister of Labour, Dr. Chris Ngige.

The town hall meeting featured remarks from the President of the Students Union Government , Eze Christian, who appealed to both ASUU and the Federal Government to urgently resolve their differences in the interest of students.
