Indefinite Strike: NANS urges Fed Govt, ASUU to negotiate

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the Federal Government to negotiate.

NANS President, Danielson Akpan told newsmen that ASUU embarked on an indefinite strike not only because of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) issue, but because government had not fulfilled other agreements reached with ASUU.

“We cannot be against ASUU because we have urged government to meet up with the agreements reached with them. We followed up and played our part, but government didn’t comply.  In fact, it is not only ASUU that is on strike, COEASU is on strike too,” Akpan said.
