Non-Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities (NASU) Lautech Chapter is set to embark on a strike action in reaction to the refusal of the Stete Government to pay their salaries for August, September, October and this is December.
The non-academic staff of the universities Lautech Chapter on Wednesday said they would embark on their strike action next week except the government pay the 3 months’ salary being own them before then.
General Secretary, Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions, told journalists in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, that members of the union were being forced into embarking on a strike action by the refusal of the State (Osun and Oyo) Government to pay their salaries for August and September.
The NASU scribe said, “NASU LAUTECH Chapter will start its own strike this week Possibly on Thursday because we have been working and government has refused to pay our salaries. For us, it does not make sense to continue to keep the system running when we are not paid our salary. The reason for this is not known to us.
“Workers in LAUTECH are not paid their salary right now and that is big challenge. Osun State and Oyo State Government has not paid our salary for August, September, October and as we are talking now, today is December 3, they are effectively owing us three months’ salary and there’s no way we can continue to do this work with empty stomach, while they go about running around the globe with heavy stomach.”
“Nigerians would have known that we deliberately did not want this continuous disruption of academic activities because, of course, Parent and Students are complaining that those of us in the academic world have continuously ruined the future of students by going on to many strikes imposed on us by the government.
“That is one of the reasons why this time around we did not want to necessarily go on strike, but government is pushing us to that point and Nigerians will have no reason not to understand our position if we start the strike by next week.” – NASU Chairmean Lautech Chapter..
