ASUU Declares Two-Week Warning Strike Over Unresolved Disputes

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has declared a two-week total comprehensive warning strike across public universities in Nigeria. The strike, announced by ASUU President Prof. Chris Piwuna, comes as a result of long-standing disputes with the federal government over issues such as university funding and lecturer welfare, stemming from the unimplemented 2009 ASUU-FGN agreement.

Meanwhile, talks between the government and ASUU, represented by Dr. Tunji Alausa, are in the final stages to find a solution to the ongoing crisis in the country's tertiary education system.
