Just In: ASUU Begins Mobilisation for Nationwide Strike
Ahead of its planned nationwide strike, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) leadership has started mobilising its members across universities in the country to join the industrial actions.
The union maintained that the latest development was due to the silence of the federal government on the notice it issued to all relevant authorities, including the Minister of Labour and Employment, Maigari Dingyadi.

On Monday, September 29, the university lecturers announced the plan to shut down public universities across the country in pressing home their demands.
ASUU specifically explained that the strike notice, which started from Saturday, September 28, 2025, would first lead to a two-week warning strike, and after that, would be a total and indefinite strike as a result of the attitude of the federal government
However, Daily Trust reported that a new notice, which was signed by Prof. Chris Piwuna, the ASUU president, was sent to the union's branches, saying that the lecturers had no choice but to shut down the universities through strike because of the conduct of the government.
