The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Nsukka Zone, has accused the Federal Government of compelling it to shut down Nigerian universities by deliberately failing to implement the 2025 ASUU/FGN Agreement.
The union made its position known Thursday during a press conference held at Benue State University (BSU), Makurdi, where it said government actions since the signing of the agreement showed a pattern of neglect, warning that the development could trigger another industrial crisis in Nigeria’s university system.
