ASUU extended its ongoing strike by eight weeks on Monday after a four-week warning strike.
According to the union, the extension was due to the failure of President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime to implement the agreement it reached with the federal government in 2009.
ASUU also accused Mr Buhari’s regime of working against the deployment of the UTAS, a payment platform designed by ASUU in lieu of the IPPIS payment system.
