Members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and that of the Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) are currently gathered at the Unity Fountain Abuja, protesting the non payment of their four-month salaries.
The protest is being led by the President of SSANU, Mohammed Aruna Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Comrade Peters Adeyemi.
Both unions are aggrieved that, despite a directive by the President that the four-month arrears be paid, only members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) got paid, leaving out SSANU and NASU members.
However, a mild drama ensued at the Unity Fountain as stern looking security personnel prevented the protesters from leaving the convergence point.
