This is contained in a statement jointly signed by SSANU President, Mohammed Ibrahim, and NASU General Secretary, Prince Peters Adeyemi on Wednesday.

According to them, the 10-day grace period given to the Federal Government to pay the four months of outstanding salaries to university staff expired on 26th July 2024.
The unions gave the Federal Government another three-week ultimatum beginning from Tuesday, September 17 to act on their demands or risk the indefinite strike by the unions.
They threatened to shut down universities and inter-university centres if payment was not made within the fresh grace period.
SSANU and NASU are demanding, among other things, the payment of four months’ withheld salaries of their members, improved remuneration, earned allowances, and the implementation of the 2009 agreement with the federal government.
The unions accused the Federal Government of failure to act within the initial six weeks ultimatum it issued in July this year.
