The non-teaching staff unions (NASU and SSANU) in Nigerian universities have appealed to President Bola Tinubu for intervention in the payment of four months’ withheld salaries. Despite a previous directive from the President in October 2023 to release the funds, the unions claim the payment has been selectively implemented, favoring academic staff. This disparity has led to nationwide protests by the unions, demanding fair treatment and addressing other welfare issues in universities. The unions warn of escalating actions, potentially leading to a total shutdown of universities if their demands are not met.
