LASU Begins Indefinite Strike

By Fly Cable News

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Lagos State University chapter has commenced an indefinite strike.

This is over the failure of the state government to implement the federal government-approved salary increment of twenty five and thirty five percent for its members since January 2023.

In a statement, the Chairman of the ASUU-LASU branch, Professor Ibrahim Bakare said that the action conformed with the decision of the Joint Action Committee, JAC, of all the staff unions in the university.

He said a letter has been sent to the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello and the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu

Professor Bakare is also calling on the Lagos State Government to harmonise its members’ salary scale with that of the Lagos State University of Science and Technology and the Lagos State University of Education, which he said earns better than their counterparts in LASU.
