ASUU: Lecturers to embark on protest, boycott classes

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has reportedly finalized plans to go on a one-day nationwide protest.

Their action is an offshoot of the outrage over the partial salary paid by the Federal Government.

A member of the ASUU National Executive Council confirmed the development on Sunday.

The protest will reportedly involve members boycotting classes for one day.

“We are protesting. Branches will choose their date. The government needs to understand that we are not casual workers,” said the ASUU NEC member.

According to a letter signed by the chairperson of ASUU, University of Lagos (UNILAG) branch, Dr. Dele Ashiru, the branch would implement the decision on Tuesday.
