The Joint Action Committee, JAC, has extended the ongoing strike by the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, SSANU, and the Non-Academic Staff Union, NASU, by one month in protest against non-implementation of their demands.

The decision to extend the warning strike is contained in a circular signed by the General Secretary of NASU, Prince Peters Adeyemi and National President of SSANU, Mohammed Ibrahim.

The circular addressed to branch chairmen of NASU and SSANU in public universities, was with immediate effect.

According to JAC, the feedback received from the various branches on the resolutions conducted, which backed the ongoing strike and other actions by the leadership, the strike has been extended by one month, pending when the government would have a change of heart and be disposed to the unions demands.
