ASUU branches resume lecture after June salary payment.

The Federal Government has released the June 2025 salaries of lecturers and other tertiary institution-based workers, prompting the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to call off its strike. 

Recall that the union had previously directed its members to suspend services due to delayed salaries attributed to the migration from IPPIS to GIFMIS platform.

However, the payment of salaries seems to have brought relief to lecturers, and ASUU chapters at various universities have directed their members to resume work, with the Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, attributing the current stability in tertiary institutions to sustained dialogue and the government's commitment to addressing staff demands.

The government also assured of its commitment to continued collaboration with education sector unions to ensure institutions remain open and protect the academic calendar, emphasizing that the welfare of academic and non-academic staff remains a top priority, aligning with President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda for human capital development, and this development is expected to boost staff morale and productivity.
