Over 200 professors, lecturers quit KASU over poor welfare – ASUU

More than 200 professors and lecturers have left Kaduna State University due to poor welfare and working conditions. According to ASUU, they have not received the improved conditions of service provided by the 2025 Federal Government-ASUU Agreement, which took effect in January 2026.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, Kaduna State University chapter, has issued a two-week ultimatum to the university authorities and Kaduna State Government to implement the agreement. The union warned that failure to act could result in a total and indefinite strike.

Most of the departing lecturers have secured appointments in newer universities within and outside Kaduna State, citing poor remuneration and declining welfare conditions at Kaduna State University.
