ASUU Initiates Open-Ended Strike at Ondo State University

Following a decisive resolution passed during the union’s congress on Thursday, 21 August, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko (AAUA), has commenced an indefinite strike. This action stems from ongoing grievances related to unpaid salaries and outstanding arrears, which have yet to be addressed by the relevant authorities.

Background and Implications of the Strike

The strike reflects a broader pattern of industrial actions by ASUU across Nigerian universities, often triggered by delayed remuneration and unmet agreements with the government. As of 2024, over 70% of public universities in Nigeria have experienced similar disruptions, impacting academic calendars and student progression.

Impact on Students and Academic Activities

Students at AAUA and other affected institutions face significant interruptions to their studies, with examinations and lectures postponed indefinitely. This disruption not only delays graduations but also affects the overall quality of education and the university’s reputation.

Looking Ahead: Potential Resolutions and Government Response

Negotiations between ASUU and government representatives are anticipated, aiming to resolve the salary disputes and clear arrears. Previous strikes have sometimes lasted several months, underscoring the urgency for proactive dialogue. Stakeholders are calling for sustainable funding models and transparent payment systems to prevent recurrent industrial actions.
