The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, says it is mobilizing its members across the country for a nationwide rally scheduled for today,Tuesd August 26, 2025.

At a press conference held at the Federal University of Oye-Ekiti on Monday, the Zonal Coordinator, Adeola Oyebisi Egbedokun, said the move was part of the union’s efforts to pressure the Federal Government to address its long-standing demands

Egbedokun stated that the rallies were the union’s first decisive response to the government’s continued inaction, warning that the protests signal what lies ahead if concerns remain unaddressed.

According to him, the rallies will be held simultaneously across universities in the country, with academic activities suspended during the demonstrations.

According to him, the National Executive Council, NEC, of ASUU has given the government until its scheduled meeting of August 28 to respond to its demands, after which the next line of action would be determined.

“For over two years, we have kept faith with dialogue and refrained from strikes, but our patience has reached its limit.

“If the government continues to play games with the future of our universities, then it must bear the consequences of the storm that will follow,” he warned.
