ASUU at Adekunle Ajasin University Ends Strike in 2026

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), confirmed the suspension of its strike, which lasted over two months, due to financial interventions from the Ondo State Government. Prof. Boluwaji Oshodi, the ASUU Chairman at AAUA, stated that a congress would direct members to resume academic activities.

Concurrently, the Joint Action Committee of Ondo State-Owned Tertiary Institutions (JAC-ODSTI), which includes the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU), and National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT), also announced the suspension of its indefinite strike, effective September 29, 2026. This decision followed financial assistance from Governor Lucky Orimisan Ayedatiwa aimed at resolving issues affecting AAUA, Olusegun Agagu University of Science and Technology, Okitipupa (OAUSTECH), and the University of Medical Sciences (UNIMED), Ondo.

The committee instructed all affected members to resume duties, ending weeks of disruption in academic and administrative activities.
