The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) University of Ibadan Chapter, has said it is waiting for approval from the
national body, to commence a one-week warning strike this Friday.
At an emergency meeting presided over by its chairman, Dr. Deji Omole, on Wednesday
in Ibadan, the union threatened to embark on an indefinite strike to protest illegal pension deductions and shortfall of salaries.
Omole gave UI’s management up to March 10, to address the issues or they continue with the indefinite strike.
“While ASUU awaits the approval of the national body of the union to proceed on its strike, its Non Academic Staff counterparts
have also resolved to proceed on an indefinite strike unless the issues are resolved favorably.
“Failure to implement all the items stated above by Friday, the staff unions in the university, arising from the warning strike
earlier issued in August, 2016, will embark on an indefinite strike,” Omole said.
