The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at Kaduna State University has announced an indefinite strike starting February 11 over unresolved welfare issues.
The decision was communicated in a letter signed by the branch chairman, Dr. Peter Adamu, and secretary, Dr. Peter Waziri, following the non-response from the Kaduna State government regarding their grievances.
The union cited several grievances, including unpaid salaries from May to September 2022, withheld salaries, unpaid earned academic allowances from 2015 to 2020, and non-remittance of pensions from 2009 to 2019, among other issues.
The lecturers noted that despite meetings with Governor Uba Sani and reminders to the state government, no payments have been made.
