The University Of Calabar (UNICAL) branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has enjoined the national body of the union to embark on a total and comprehensive strike if the federal government fails to honour agreements reached with it by February 13, 2022.

UNICAL URGES ASUU TO EMBARK ON INDEFINITE STRIKE

In a resolution unanimously passed during a congress meeting held on Thursday at the UNICAL Conference centre, members of the branch resolved to support the national body and abide by its directives whenever the strike is declared.

In a press release issued at the end of the congress, the branch took a swipe at the federal government for failing to honour agreements.

Berating the federal government, the branch noted that it is more than a year after ASUU patriotically suspended the nine-month strike occasioned by the failure of the federal government to implement the 2009 agreements and numbers of Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) and Memoranda of Action (MOA) entered into with the union.
