The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has decided to put its planned nationwide strike on hold until January. This decision comes as a strategic move to allow more time for discussions with the federal government. According to ASUU, the primary goal is to avoid further disruptions to the already strained academic calendar while keeping the door open for meaningful dialogue.
Concerns Over TETFund's Future
ASUU has raised alarm over proposed reforms that could potentially weaken the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund). The union views these changes as a direct threat to the funding and sustainability of Nigeria's higher education system. ASUU urges all stakeholders to prioritize education by protecting this crucial funding body.
Push for Efficient Use of Allocated Funds
In addition to opposing the proposed reforms, ASUU is advocating for the proper utilization of unspent funds earmarked for tertiary education. The union stresses that these resources must be deployed efficiently to address the numerous challenges plaguing the education sector.
