BREAKING: NASU IMSU Embarks on Indefinite Strike (SEE OFFICIAL PHOTOS)

Reporters: Duru Victor & IMSU HOT FM

Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) IMSU embarked on an indefinite strike today.

The strike they revealed, while staging a protest at IMSU Front gate in the early hours of today, was due to salaries arrears owed them by the state government. They also alleged marginalization.

However, attempts by our media team to reach any NASU IMSU official proved abortive while the CSO IMSU declined to comment on the issue as of time of filing this report.

Meanwhile academic activities resumed rather slowly today as some departments  began lectures today namely department of education government finalists of the faculty of education. Other departments are reported to resume in earnest with some resuming next week Monday.

However it remains to be seen if the recent NASU IMSU strike will affect the scheme of things.

1. Going to recreation spots: Some Nigerians will go to different recreation centres come Independence day. This include going to the beach. Others will go to amusement parks with their children.

2. Sleep and rest Due to the stress some Nigerians pass through between Mondays and Fridays, they will use the public holiday declared for Independence to sleep. Such people will not leave their house.

3. Visitation: Nigerians love visiting themselves. Some people have not had the time to even say hello to their friends for some time now. The celebration will afford them to pay for this.

5. Partying: Nigerians love parties. It is not only when there are marriages, birthdays or naming ceremonies that Nigerians party. Some people will organise concerts and get together tomorrow to mark the Independence anniversary

6. Watching Television: People will not just listen to the president's speech or the march past, they will also watch different TV programmes to relax themselves.
