In protest of the non-payment of salaries of lecturers not enrolled in the Federal Government’s Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS), the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has commenced a two-week warning strike.
An announcement to this effect was made by the National President of ASUU, Dr Biodun Ogunyemi at the end of National Executive Council meeting of the union in Enugu.
He said: “NEC resolved to embark on two weeks warning strike action with effect from Monday 9th March 2020, to compel the Government to implement the agreement and resolution.”

He said the strike action was called to pressure the Federal Government to implement the agreement and resolution of Memorandum of Action (MoA) it reached with the union in 2009, 2013, 2017 and 2019 respectively.
