Kebbi university lecturers threaten industrial action over unpaid benefits, , \"\"<\/p>\n

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Abdullahi Fodio University of Science and Technology, Kebbi State branch, has threatened to embark on industrial action over unresolved welfare issues.<\/p>\n

This was disclosed in a statement issued on Wednesday by the union\u2019s chairman, Dr Musa Isah Fakai.<\/p>\n

The union said agreed remuneration packages between the Federal Government and ASUU had yet to be implemented, despite several communications with the university management and the Kebbi State Ministry for Higher Education.<\/p>\n

It also listed non-payment of academic earned allowances, wage awards, and delays in promotions and payment of promotion arrears as part of its grievances.<\/p>\n

According to the union, annual salary increments have not been implemented for several years, further worsening the welfare of academic staff.<\/p>\n

ASUU said it had engaged the university management and relevant authorities without positive response, warning that it may be forced to down tools if the issues remain unresolved.<\/p>\n

The union, however, expressed confidence in Governor Nasir Idris to address the concerns, noting that the issues may not have been brought to his attention.<\/p>\n
