 The academic staff union of University of Zassu has extended its warning strike by another two months. A National Executive Council member of the union who spoke anonymously confirmed the developments to reporters. He noted that ASU made the decision at its prolonged meeting of the National Executive Council, NEC. Now the NEC meeting was held at the union's national secretariat at the University of Abuja. Earlier, we were joined by Dili Ashiru, the NEC's ASU Chairman, Udillab Chapter. We met at the weekend at our National Executive Council meeting to review the activities of government so far concerning the demands for a strike. At that meeting, we took reports from our trustees and principal officers who have been engaging with government. The report indicated that government had not shown enough seriousness in addressing the demands that led to the declaration of the strike action. Specifically, we noted that to be late in setting up a review panel for a report that we have concluded since May 2021 and that while discussions was going on with NIDDA on the suitability of UTAs for the Nigerian University system, the Director-General of NIDDA, without consultation with those meeting with us, went on air misleading Nigerians that the software developed by Nigerian Academy had failed. We considered these two critical reports among others and came to the conclusion that government needed some time to be able to clearly address the demands that we have made. It was in the light of these that NEC decided that the strike be rolled over for another eight weeks with a view to giving enough time to government and its agents to be able to quickly and finally address those demands so that our students can return back to campus. It is our expectation that if this government loves Nigerians and are passionate about the development of Nigeria, two weeks may even be too much for government to address these demands because in any case they are not fresh demands. They are demands that we have had over the years and the government exactly knows what to do to bring this strike to a closure. In the meantime, as the academic staff union of university has also rolled over its strike to Tiemont, the federal government has reacted to the extension saying it has met all the demands of the union. The Minister of State for Education Chukwamek and Wajuba insisted that all earned allowances as well as revitalization funds had been released.
