 ASUU-KASU Begins Indefinite Strike Over Unimplemented 2025 Agreement


The Kaduna State University chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU-KASU) has commenced an indefinite industrial action following the expiration of its two-week warning strike.


The union’s decision followed a resolution reached at its Congress on August 12, 2026, to declare an industrial dispute over what it described as the non-implementation of key provisions of the 2025 Federal Government of Nigeria-ASUU Agreement.


According to the union, the agreement, which took effect in January 2026, is yet to be domesticated by Kaduna State University.


Among the outstanding issues cited by ASUU-KASU are the implementation of the 25–35 per cent salary increase, university autonomy and payment of outstanding promotion arrears.


The union had earlier embarked on a two-week warning strike to press its demands. With the expiration of the warning strike and what it described as the failure to resolve the outstanding issues, the chapter has now proceeded with an indefinite strike.


Meanwhile, the university management has appealed to the union to suspend the industrial action, citing ongoing dialogue and intervention efforts by the Kaduna State Government.


The management expressed its commitment to resolving the issues through negotiation and urged the union to return to the negotiating table in the interest of students and the university community.


The development is expected to affect academic activities at Kaduna State University as efforts continue to resolve the dispute.
