Four Staff Unions, Including ASUU Disrupts LASU Resumption Today
The four staff unions at Lagos State University , Ojo have locked out their Vice- Chancellor , Prof . Olanrewaju Fagboun , and students as the university resumes today after the coronavirus break .
The unions involved in the protest are the Academic Staff Union of Universities , the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities , Non – Academic Staff Union, and the National Association of Academic Technologists .
At 7 am , members of the unions stood at the gate and prevented members of staff from gaining entry into the University .
They were protesting non – payment of the salary increment promised them by the Lagos State Government over a year ago .
They claimed that other Lagos State workers had received the increment but all the tertiary institutions in Lagos State were yet to be included .
Fagboun made attempts to appeal to the unions but they didn ’ t oblige him.
PurpleWorld reported earlier that the Lagos State government has given approval to the institutions in the state to resume, starting today.
