The Members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) are currently assembling at Unity Fountain in Abuja to protest the non-payment of their four months’ salaries.
The protest is being led by the President of SSANU, Mohammed Aruna Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Comrade Peters Adeyemi.
Both unions are aggrieved that, despite a directive by the President that the four-month arrears be paid, only members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) got paid, leaving out SSANU and NASU members.
However, a mild drama ensued at the Unity Fountain as stern looking security personnel prevented the protesters from leaving the convergence point.
