    IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- The Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Allied and Education Institutions (NASU), on Saturday, suspended their strike actions after a brief meeting with the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu in Abuja.

    The suspension is expected to take effect from Wednesday.

    According to the education minister, the Federal Government has committed N50 billion to pay earned allowances for members of SSANU, NASU and the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

    However, activities in public universities are expected to remain limited as ASUU remains on strike.

    Minister Adamu, who had hinted of SSANU and NASU’s strike suspension on Thursday, said ASUU rejected the government’s proposal over the “no work, no pay” rule.

    Professor Emmanuel Osodeke said salary backlogs must be cleared before lecturers return to the classroom.

    “If we agree on that, therefore, the lectures we should have given [to students] for 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 [sessions], should be allowed to go so we start a new session, 2022/2023, in September,” Professor Osodeke said.

    “Therefore, by July next year, I would go on my leave as we used to have in those days so that the backlog is gone. All the lectures that remain; all the two sets of admissions that JAMB has given that are waiting should become irrelevant.”
