SSANU, NASU Lock UI Gates As Strike Begins

All gates leading into the University of Ibadan are currently under lock and key as the non-academic workers of Nigerian universities, under the aegis of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities, began a strike it had announced earlier.

Naijaparry reports that the unions said it would embark on a five-day nationwide warning following the failure of the Nigerian government to meet their demands after the expiration of a 14-day ultimatum.
