The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has given the federal and state governments a three-week ultimatum to implement all the Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) and agreements they reached with the union, failing which the lecturers will be forced to resume another nationwide industrial action.
Addressing a press conference at its headquarters in Abuja, ASUU President, Emmanuel Osodeke, said that the union is worried that almost one year since it suspended the nine-month strike over the non-implementation of the 2009 agreement, the federal government is yet to honour agreements reached with the university workers.
“We are very dissatisfied with governments’ attitude to our issues. We have given the government three weeks to meet our demands during the NEC meeting we had Saturday and Sunday,” he said.
