The President of SSANU, MOHAMMED HARUNA, gave the advice while speaking with newsmen in Abuja,

He threatened that the union would embark on industrial action if government refused to heed to the union’s request.

MOHAMMED HARUNA said that the reopening of the matter that had been decided by the National Industrial Court would affect the industrial harmony being enjoyed in the universities as there a subsisting court judgment in favour of the union.
