The Senior Staff of Nigerian Universities SSANU has called on the Federal Government to duly review the 2009 agreement without further delay to avoid another strike action disrupting academic calendar in government owned universities.
This was contained in a communiqué issued at the end of its 24th regular Executive Council meeting at the Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) signed by SSANU National President, Comrade Samson Ugwoke, and the National PRO, Comrade NAD Aboribo, where it was stated that the agreement has since been due for review with effect from August, 2012 and the government is foot-dragging to the implementation.
The union also frowned at the non-implementation of the earned allowances component of the 2009 agreement to its members and urged the government to pay the arrears it owes its members in research institute that are affiliated to universities.
