What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Workers in tertiary institutions owned by Kaduna State Government have threatened an indefinite strike if their welfare demands are not addressed within 15 days. The Joint Union of Tertiary Institutions of Kaduna State (JUTIKS) is demanding payment of 30 per cent of the outstanding CONPCASS/CONTEDISS salary and the implementation of approved 25 and 35 per cent wage allowances. Other demands include formalizing the 65-year retirement age and exempting certain allowances from taxation.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The labor dispute puts immediate pressure on Kaduna State Government to resolve outstanding financial commitments. The union stated that the 30 per cent salary increase, which followed the government's approval to convert salaries, had been promised for the first quarter of 2026 but remained unfulfilled.
