From Adanna Nnamani, Abuja
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, has presented letters of registration to Congress of Nigerian University Academics (CONUA) and Nigeria Association of Medical and Dental Lecturers in Academics (NAMDA).
The labour minister had presented certificates of recognition to the two unions in October 2022.
According to Ngige, the regrouping of the unions was necessitated by the grievances they had as members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)
He said the registration letters will allow the two unions operate fully in their own right.
