The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Plateau State University, Bokkos chapter, has embarked on a total and indefinite strike after accusing the university management of failing to address a six-point charter of demands.
The union announced the industrial action on Wednesday following a congress meeting, after a 14-day ultimatum issued to the administration on August 11 lapsed without resolution.
Vincent Choji, the union’s chairperson, and Lomka Kopdiya, the secretary, made this known in a statement signed by both leaders, stating that the decision followed approval from ASUU’s National Executive Council (NEC).
“Congress is convinced that the substance of our demands on all six items has not been satisfactorily addressed,” the statement read.
Key among the union’s demands are the commencement of the contributory pension scheme, full implementation of the 2025 federal government-ASUU agreement, and payment of arrears owed since January 1, 2026.
