Non-academic Unions of Universities Threatens to Elongate Strike.

The Non-academic Unions of Universities who commenced an indefinite strike December4, 2017, after accusing the government of violating an earlier agreement on the sharing of earned allowances and non fulfillment of the agreements. Have come out to say the strike action this time would be more intense.
The unions said this in a statement signed by the chairman of the joint committee, Samson Ugwoke, on Sunday.
The union said universities’ managements have the right to announce resumption of activities but the union members, ”have a right to deny the University system of their services till their rights are respected and honoured.”
According to the statement, the unions said they were not unaware of the ”antics of vice chancellors and managements of institutions to create a likeness of normalcy by announcing resumption of students and other activities.”

The statement said the unions, ”had made the strike action comfortable for institutions,” by providing social amenities which will be put on hold pending the time the strike lasts.
Apart from the strike monitoring teams set up by the branch executives, no SSANU member should be found within the university premises.
Directives have given to ensure that no Management, Dean or Head of Department coerces SSANU members to render any services. And where an attempt is made to bring people either staff or external to perform official function of our members, the attempt must be resisted with all legitimate forces at your disposal.

They must also blacklist all saboteurs and renegade members of the union who seek to undermine our strike action for pecuniary gains,” the statement said

The spokesperson of SSANU, Abdussobur Salaam, said the three unions have been providing basic amenities to the university community despite the ongoing strike ,but this act of sympathy is being taken for granted by some vice chancellors and we are withdrawing those ‘little things’ until we resolve with the government,” he said.
