The National Association of Nigerian Students has called on the Nasarawa State Government to urgently intervene and settle outstanding arrears owed to staff of the Nasarawa State University, Keffi, to end the ongoing industrial action and restore academic activities.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities chapter of the Nasarawa State University, Keffi, had on August 10 declared a total, comprehensive and indefinite strike over alleged unpaid entitlements amounting to billions of naira.

The National Treasurer of NANS, Idris Omeiza, made the call on Tuesday during an engagement between the leadership of the students’ association and the management of NSUK, led by the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Sa’adatu Liman, at the university campus.

Omeiza acknowledged the frustration of students over the prolonged disruption of academic activities but urged them to remain calm, patient and peaceful while consultations continue to end the strike.
