KASU Non-Teaching Unions Demand Action in 7-Day Ultimatum

The Joint Action Committee (JAC) of non-teaching staff unions at Kaduna State University (KASU) has issued a seven-day ultimatum to the Kaduna State Government and university authorities regarding the non-implementation of the 2026 Consolidated Non-Teaching Tool Allowance (CONTTA) agreement and other welfare demands. This ultimatum, ratified at a congress on November 2, 2026, includes demands for immediate implementation of the CONTTA agreement, payment of an approved wage award, respect for university autonomy, provision of group life insurance for staff, and payment of a N70,000 monthly transport support for six months.

The JAC warned that failure to address these issues within the stipulated period could lead to a warning strike. The committee emphasized that the ultimatum reflects a collective demand for fairness, equity, and respect for agreements with university-based unions while expressing a commitment to constructive engagement and industrial harmony.
