Members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) at the University of Jos (UNIJOS) have embarked on indefinite strike.
In a statement, Jurbe Molwus, the chairperson of the ASUU branch, urged staff members to withdraw their services if their June salary was not paid by 11:59 p.m. on a specified date.
Molwus said the withdrawal would hold until the salary is paid.
Earlier, the national executive council of ASUU had directed all its branches to take action when salaries are not paid by the third day of a new month.
