adsThe Kano Zone of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has warned that the Federal Government’s delay in fully implementing the 2025 agreement reached with the union could trigger fresh industrial unrest across Nigerian universities.
Speaking during a press conference held at Bayero University, Kano, the Zonal Coordinator of ASUU Kano Zone, Abdulkadir Muhammad, said the union’s patience was being overstretched by what it described as the government’s fragmented and poorly coordinated implementation of the agreement signed in December 2025.
Muhammad said the failure of the Federal Government to constitute the Implementation Monitoring Committee (IMC), meant to oversee the execution of the agreement, had created loopholes that allowed selective compliance by some federal and state universities.
According to him, components of the Consolidated Academic Staff Salary Scale, including Consolidated Academic Tool Allowances, Earned Academic Allowances and Professorial Allowances, were being implemented partially by some university authorities.
The ASUU Kano Zone comprises Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria; Bayero University, Kano; Kaduna State University; Kano University of Science and Technology, Wudil; Federal University Dutse; Northwest University Kano; Sule Lamido University, Kafin Hausa; and the Federal University of Technology, Babura.adsads
