Federation of University Teachers' Associations (FUTA) has declared a one-day token strike on Tuesday, 30th September 2025. As a sister union of FUTA, the TAEU has decided to adhere to FUTA's decision in solidarity in order to safeguard and achieve our rights. The principal objectives of this trade union action are to urge the government to take immediate and concrete measures to resolve the following critical issues:
- Rectifying the long-standing salary anomaly.
- Reinstating the 20% special academic allowance.
- Ensuring timely and adequate recruitment of lecturers.
- Restoring facilities and entitlements of academics that existed prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Revising outdated fees and payments still governed by circulars issued over a decade ago.
- Addressing the school admission issue affecting children of academics.
- Improving infrastructure facilities in universities to meet present and future needs.
- Establishing a transparent and acceptable mechanism to implement education reforms.
