University lecturers begin nationwide strike
Audio By Vocalize
Learning in all public universities across the country has been paralysed after lecturers downed their tools on Tuesday.
The University Academic Staff Union (UASU) declared that their strike will be on until the government heeds to their demands as stipulated in the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).
Led by their Secretary General Constantine Wasonga, the dons called on the government to honour the negotiated return to work formula which had numerous benefits to cater for their welfare.
The lecturers have vowed not to return to work until they are paid their dues.
The dons exclusively blamed vice-chancellors for their woes, saying they have for many years frustrated their efforts to be enumerated better.
Wasonga insisted that no don will appear in lecture halls to discharge knowledge to learners.
