Nigeria University crisis : SSANU suspends strike

By

  SSANU had been on strike for about one week.

                                       
The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) has announced the suspension of its week-long strike. The suspension of the strike is contained in a statement issued in Abuja on Friday and signed by the union’s National Secretary, Promise Adewusi.
It said that the decision to suspend the strike was informed by the Federal Government’s compliance with the union’s demands.”Following substantial compliance to our demand for the payment of August and September salaries of our members which is the reason for our current national strike action, we hereby suspend the strike and direct all our members to return to their duties with effect from Monday, the 14th of October, 2013,” the statement read.
The statement thanked members of the union for their solidarity, adding that the non-payment of the salaries of its members for work done would not happen again. The stoppage of the strike by SSANU is not expected to lead to the return of students to the various public universities as university lecturers, ASUU, are still on strike.
The lecturers have been on strike since July 1 and have vowed to continue until the federal government implements a 2009 agreement it had with the union. The federal government has already ordered the stoppage the salaries of the striking lecturers.

ASUU STRIKE CONTINUES...

By
Students are really tired of waiting for the federal government and ASUU to come up with a final agreement and  let the students of federal universities in nigeria go to school. while some take sides, some others still dont know what  the whole strike menace is about.  Some students have even started making up jokes and singing songs relating to the strike situation, while some other look for petty jobs to keep them busy.                       some students have sure started a peaceful protest to see if the government can put a stop to the strike..   if a student is at home right now and is still happy about all that is happening in the country concerning the strike,he sure never liked school.
