Kebbi State University of Science and Technology (KSUSTA), branch Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities ( ASUU), Comrade (Dr) Ibrahim Yale has said that his branch is still on strike because all Nigerian universities have almost peculiar demands, adding that the issues are the same regardless of ownership.
Explaining further, he said if such demands are met both state and federal universities will benefit from them, they include getting the central government to review the 2009 FGN/ASUU agreement, two, ASUU is a union for all public universities like NLC, CVC and NANS.
According to him, education revitalisation funds are for all universities, not the federal varsities alone, as well to checkmate the proliferation of state universities governors cannot fund, our local demands are yearly increments, the backlog of earned academic allowance, minimum wage adjustments, implementations of promotions from 2020 to 2021, domestication of review laws and regulations of conditions of service and minimum overhead of N5 million, among other local demands.
The above reasons, the chairman said, are the justification they are still on indefinite strike.
“KSUSTA unlike other state universities is still on strike and is solidly behind the National body of ASSU.
He added that academic activities remain grounded in KSUSTA till further notice.
