AAU Ekpoma ASUU chapter declares indefinite strike after a 14-day ultimatum expired without the implementation of its demands.
The industrial action began on Tuesday, August 25, following the expiration of a 14-day ultimatum issued to the university management and Edo State Government.
The union said its demands include full implementation of the 2025 FGN-ASUU agreement at the institution and payment of accrued allowances owed from January 2026.
The strike affects teaching and lecturing, examinations, supervision of students’ research projects, and other statutory academic and administrative duties.
The AAU chapter had earlier joined other university branches authorised by ASUU’s National Executive Council to commence processes for industrial action over the implementation of the 2025 agreement.
The national body had warned that affected branches could proceed with strikes if their demands were not addressed after issuing the required ultimatums.
The development is expected to disrupt academic activities at the institution as the union maintains its demand for the implementation of the agreement and settlement of outstanding allowances.
