The National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT) has given the federal government a two-week ultimatum to meet their demands or face a strike action.

NAAT President, Ibeji Nwoko, while addressing journalists today, in Abuja, said the two-week ultimatum would run from February 28 to March 14.

He threatened that the union would begin a nationwide strike from March 17 to March 31, should the government fail to fulfil its promises.

The union is accusing the federal government of failing to reposition laboratories, workshops and studios in public universities.

He noted that the reason for their agitations also include, the non-full implementation of the 2009 FGN/NAAT Agreements, the refusal to release the enabling circular for the implementation of CONTISS 14 & 15 for Academic Technologists, as contained in the MOU of 2017, 2020 and 2021.
