College Of Education Lecturers Threaten To Resume Strike

The National Association of Colleges of Education Academic Staff Union, COEASU, has threatened to resume its nationwide strike action if the Federal Government fails to honour the agreement reached with the body in December 2013.

The President of the union, Mister Asagha Nkoro, said that the body insists on the implementation of the agreement on the migration of lower cadre to the same salary scale with the general cadre.

Another demand is the 2012 visitation white paper report which dealt with most lingering labour issues within the body.

The union is also seeking the approval of autonomous degree status for the colleges of education, certified competent by the National Universities Commission, NUC, among other demands.
