The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has rejected the Federal Government’s last-minute appeal to halt its planned warning strike scheduled to begin on October 13, describing the intervention as a little too late.
The ASUU President, Professor Chris Piwuna, made this known on Thursday during an interview on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief, where he accused the government of neglecting the union’s long-standing demands despite multiple opportunities to engage.
Professor Piwuna criticized the Ministry of Education for what he described as its habitual delay in addressing critical issues affecting university lecturers.
