ASUU (Academic Staff Union of Universities)

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) is a professional association of university lecturers in Nigeria. It advocates for improved wages, better working conditions, and adequate funding for universities to ensure quality education. ASUU often engages in negotiations and, at times, strikes to press for these issues, aiming to influence government policies and support academic freedom. Its members are primarily university academic staff who work collectively to safeguard their interests and uphold the standards of higher education in the country.
