The Federal Government on Tuesday broke the ranks of The Academic Staff Union Of Universities (ASUU) when it registered two unions in the university system.
The organizations are the Congress of Nigerian University Academics (CONUA) and the National Association of Medical and Dental Academics (NAMDA) .
Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labor and Productivity, explained that the two organizations will coexist with ASUU.
Since February 14, 2022, ASUU has been on strike in protest over unpaid allowances and in demand of a better welfare package from the Federal Government from professors at public universities.
