Academic and other activities in the 110 federal government colleges, FGCs, commonly known as unity schools, are likely to be disrupted soon; this is following a notice of strike by organized labour over poor welfare, among other things.
Under the aegis of the Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria, ASCSN, organized Labour expressed disgust that for the past two years, the federal ministry of education has bluntly refused to address the poor conditions of workers.
While issuing a 21-day ultimatum to the government, the ASCSN vowed to order workers in the institutions to down tools and commence a nationwide strike should the government fail to address its demands.
In the letter of ultimatum to the federal ministry of education in Abuja, dated January 23, 2025, ASCSN lamented that all efforts, since 2023, to bring the management of the federal ministry of education to the negotiating table to discuss welfare matters affecting its members in the 110 unity schools and the FEQAS throughout the country had been treated with contempt, hence the ultimatum.
