The Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Universities (SANU), and the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU), Taraba State University Chapter have embarked on indefinite strike over welfare issues.

The industrial action by the Senior Staff Association Of Nigeria Universities, (SANU), and the Non-Academic Staff Union, (NASU), of the Taraba State University, is to drive home their demands on welfare issues, to the management of the institution.
The removal of the allowance of non-teaching staff, the shortfall in salaries, the non-implementation of pension scheme, and the selective payment and promotion of staff are some of the issues at stake.
To ensure strict compliance with the strike, officials of both unions moved to the offices to compare notes of members that reported for work.
The University management is unhappy by the impromptu strike.
Despite the industrial action, academic activity is ongoing.
The university was recently ranked as one of the twenty best in the country, by the National Universities Commission, (NUC).
