An Assessment of ASUU Strikes since 1999 and Their Impact on Medical Education in Nigeria
Since the return to democracy in Nigeria in 1999, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has undertaken multiple strike actions to advocate for increased university funding, academic autonomy, and improved staff welfare. These strikes have severely disrupted academic calendars, particularly affecting medical education, which relies on uninterrupted clinical training. This study presents a quantitative analysis of ASUU strike durations from 1999 to 2025, along with a qualitative assessment of their impact on medical training.
