Kaduna State University (KASU) Strike Ends Following Government's Hamiltonian Moves
Actions Taken: ASUU Halts Three-Week Long Strike in Kaduna University
Celebrations echo throughout KASU as the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has finally called off its prolonged strike. Vice Chancellor, Abdullahi Musa, announced this exciting news during a conference on Thursday.
Governor Uba Sani has made some revolutionary moves to resolve outstanding issues, including a monthly standing order of ₦50 million dedicated to staff welfare. He's established a crack team for negotiations, led by Deputy Governor Hadiza Balarabe.
Moreover, Governor Sani has allocated ₦146 million to settle certain withheld salaries and allowances linked to the Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES). And to ensure financial autonomy, he's approved the retention of a portion of the university's internally generated revenue (IGR).
Professor Musa highlighted the exceptional efforts by the Kaduna State Government, noting that these measures mark a radical departure from the university's recent history. He praised the governor for his empathetic approach to addressing education issues and the welfare of staff.
Not only has the government stepped up to tackle the longstanding concerns faced by university staff, many of which date back over a decade, but they've also displayed outstanding leadership and commitment to the development of education within the state.
As the Visitor to the University, Governor Sani has demonstrated remarkable leadership, tackling the issues head-on and paving a promising path forward for KASU. The state government's philosophy is grounded in transparency, empathy, and decisive action, reflecting a deep-rooted appreciation for the essential role of education in development.
Parents, students, staff, and the community at large are encouraged to show their support for this groundbreaking initiative. Together, we can help restore KASU's prestigious reputation as an academic hub of innovation and progress.
