Unions Shut Down Kaduna State University
The Kaduna State University ( KSU ) chapters of Senior Staff Association, Non-Academic Staff Union and National Association of Technologists have joined the nationwide indefinite strike declared by unions on Monday.
Mr Kantoma Bala, Chairman of the universities senior staff association, told the News Reporter in Kaduna on Tuesday, that the three unions had formed a Joint Action Committee to monitor the strike.
“It is a national strike and the non-academic staff unions are part of the respective national bodies.
“We began the indefinite strike as directed by our respective national leadership over the failure of the Federal Government to implement the 2009 agreement with the union,” he said.
The agreement was supposed to address the problem of inadequate funding of public universities, poor governance, and administrative lapses.
