 Taraba University Students Frustrated as ASUU Declares Indefinite Strike


Students of Taraba State University (TSU), Jalingo, have voiced their frustration over the ongoing strike declared by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), triggered by unresolved issues between the state government, university management, and lecturers.


The strike, which has led to the suspension of exams, has left students stranded and uncertain about when academic activities will resume. Some students were seen leaving the campus, unsure of the duration of the disruption.


Dr. Garba Joshua, Chairperson of ASUU-TSU, explained that the strike followed the expiration of a 30-day grace period given to both the state government and university management to address critical welfare concerns affecting lecturers.


“These unresolved issues include the lack of a pension scheme, unpaid salary arrears, failure to establish a Governing Council, non-payment of Earned Academic Allowances, exclusion from minimum wage implementation, and inadequate funding, as outlined in the University’s founding law,” Dr. Joshua stated.


He emphasized that despite ASUU-TSU's consistent efforts to engage with the government, the lack of action had left the union with no option but to strike in defense of its members' welfare and the integrity of higher education in Taraba State.


Students remain uncertain about when their studies will resume as the strike continues.
