SSANU, NASU give FG 7-day strike notice over unpaid allowances

The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities and Allied Institutions (NASU) have issued a seven-day ultimatum to the Federal Government over unresolved welfare issues, warning of a nationwide strike. In a joint letter signed by SSANU President, Muhammed Ibrahim, the unions decried the “unjust disbursement of earned allowances, non-payment of outstanding salaries and arrears, and stalled renegotiation of agreements.” The letter recalled that the Joint Action Committee (JAC) of NASU and SSANU had earlier written to the government on June 18, 2025, highlighting unresolved matters. That letter led to a meeting with the Minister on July 4. According to the unions, discussions centred on: the skewed N50bn earned allowances distribution, non-payment of two months’ withheld salaries, arrears of 25/35% salary increments, and the delayed renegotiation of the 2009 FGN/NASU/SSANU agreement.

Inflation will soon hit single digit, Presidency assures Nigerians

The Presidency has assured Nigerians that inflation will fall to a single digit soon, a development it says will make life easier for citizens. Special Adviser to the President on Economic Matters, Tope Fasua, gave the assurance on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief. Fasua said food prices are already beginning to stabilize as inflation eases, citing new figures from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). According to the NBS, headline inflation dropped to 20.12% in August 2025, down from 21.88% in July. On a monthly basis, headline inflation stood at 0.74%, while food inflation was 1.65%. Year-on-year, the figure was 12.03% lower than the 32.15% recorded in August 2024. “A 20.12 inflation is still large in many quarters because what it says is that prices are still increasing, but not as they used to be.

Ganduje backs FAAN MRO hangars to make Nigeria aviation hub

Chairman of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has outlined a bold vision to establish world-class Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) hangars across Nigeria’s international airports, a move expected to reposition the country as the leading aviation hub in West and Central Africa. The multi-billion-naira initiative aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritises infrastructure and economic diversification. Why MRO hangars matter Nigeria currently spends millions of dollars annually on aircraft maintenance abroad, especially for C-Checks and D-Checks. The new facilities would: Save foreign exchange Create jobs for skilled professionals and artisans Attract airlines from across West and Central Africa Strengthen Nigeria’s aviation self-reliance “The establishment of MRO hangars will mark a turning point for the aviation sector, creating sustainable growth and positioning Nigeria as a regional hub,” Ganduje said.
