KASU-ASUU Confirms No Strike, Urges Academic Focus

KASU-ASUU, represented by Chairman Comrade Abubakar Abdullahi and Secretary Comrade Silas Amos Bakut, issued a statement on November 12, 2026, clarifying that the association is not on strike. They urged students to remain focused on their academic responsibilities and attend classes, especially with examinations approaching.

The statement was made to counter misinformation suggesting that academic activities at KASU were suspended due to a strike. Non-teaching staff unions, including NASU, SSANU, and NAAT, began a 7-day warning strike on November 10, 2026, over issues such as unpaid arrears and a demand for a 25% pay increase.

KASU-ASUU emphasized that all academic activities should continue without interruption and directed members to fulfill their duties, including teaching and examination preparation. The union also encouraged the reporting of any harassment or obstruction faced by staff while performing their duties.
