What happened
The Federal Government released eight months of salary arrears to members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) at the University of Uyo. This followed an ultimatum issued by SSANU demanding the immediate release of outstanding Consolidated University Teaching and Tertiary Institutions Salary Structure (CONTTA) arrears. The arrears were released less than 48 hours after the union issued its 14-day warning.
