The University of Jos branch’s Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) members have announced that their services have been terminated because of what they described as a delay in the payment of their salary for June 2025.
Jurbe Molwus, the branch chairperson, stated that the termination would continue until the government had reached an agreement.
The union claimed that its members have abstained from lectures and statutory meetings as a follow-up to the National Executive Council’s resolution, which directed branches to take action when salaries are not paid by the third day of the following month.
The chairperson added that the lecturers would continue to resign from their positions whenever the salary was not paid by the third day of the month.
Additionally, he added, that the branch’s strike monitoring team had been set up to monitor compliance.
If our salaries for the month of June 2025 are not paid by today, July 3rd, 2025, he said in a message sent to members that read, “Dear comrades, this is request all members to abstain from lectures and statutory meetings.”
This is in line with our congress resolution of June 4, 2025, which affirms this position and the existing NEC resolution that “branches should take action when salaries are not paid by the third day of a new month.”
” The action takes effect from 12: 01 am on Friday, July 4, 2025.
Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United are interested in a potential £55 million deal for winger Anthony Elanga.
Sources tell BBC Sport that negotiations are progressing well and both clubs are open to a deal even though no deal has been reached yet regarding the transfer of the 23-year-old Sweden international.
Newcastle have declined to comment on the $55 million request Forest made for Elanga, despite the fact that they have indicated that the fee is $55 million.
Elanga’s signing from Manchester United on a five-year deal in 2023 is thought to have cost Forest £15 million.
In the Premier League campaign from 2024 to 2025, Elanga scored six goals and added 11 assists.
What makes Elanga so popular?
Karan Vinod
journalist for BBC Sport
Newcastle’s pursuit of Elanga highlights how much his stock has grown since his brilliant partnership with Forest.
His statistical profile reveals that a player is improving and succeeding in some of the most crucial attacking metrics.
According to Opta’s radar chart, Elanga ranks among Premier League attacking midfielders and wingers in the top percentiles across all categories, according to the radar chart below.
Elanga’s ability to cross the line is near the top of the scale, making it a must-have for any team that relies on width and delivery. In contrast, neither of Newcastle’s current wingers, Harvey Barnes, or Anthony Gordon, averages more than 4.85 crosses per 90 minutes, while Elanga averages 6.65.
His quick movements and willingness to take on defenders, which add dynamism to Forest’s attack, highlight his directness and willingness to take on defenders. Even his goals per shot ratio reflects a winger’s growing lack of sharpness in front of goal.
Coleen Nolan, a veteran of Loose Women, has spoken out about the “devastating” effects of the ITV changes, claiming that many of the cast members have “becomed her family.”

Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan has described the upcoming changes and cuts at ITV as “devastating” with staff members currently living in limbo. The channel recently announced a raft of changes to its daytime schedules, including slashing the daytime panel show down to 30 weeks a year and merging the teams working on Lorraine, Loose Women and This Morning.
After celebrating 25 years on the show this year, Coleen has now expressed her destruction and worries about what will happen to the behind-the-scenes staff. The members of the crew have a family. She said, “I’ve watched them grow.” Some of our competitors from the past are producers and have children. I’ve lived with them all my life. They are unsure of what to do because they are in limbo.

She continued, “Loose Women is changing, not ending, which I’m so grateful for.” The crew size will be very different, but it’s still running. There isn’t another show that celebrates and supports all women of all ages, sizes, and genders, which is what it should be. However, it is heartbreaking to see some of my coworkers unsure of their next steps. Many of them have mortgages and young families.
Sources previously told the Mirror there wouldn’t be any “radical changes” to the Loose Women panel, but there are expected to be a number of redundancies in the behind-the-scenes crew.
Lorraine Kelly’s daily show is also being cut to 30 minutes each day and to 30 weeks of the year, with Good Morning Britain running until 9.30am to fill the time. GMB will also be extended until 10am on the weeks Lorraine is off air entirely.

Over the summer break break, the program will no longer be on television.
Coleen, 60, joined the series in 2000, joining Jane Moore, Kaye Adams, Nadia Sawalha and Ruth Langsford, and told Mirror’s Notebook magazine she had never experienced anything like the current changes.
You read all about it frequently, she said, noting that 300 people are affected by a chain store closure. Oh my goodness, that’s awful. What do you want for dinner, anyway? because it doesn’t have a direct impact on you.
I’ve never come this far away. It made me realize how devastating this is being carried out across the entire nation right now.
The channel’s daytime slate is “a really important part of what we do,” according to Kevin Lygo, managing director of ITV’s Media and Entertainment Division, adding that the change will allow us to continue to deliver a schedule that gives viewers the news, debate, and discussion they adore from the presenters they and trust.

After watching TV presenter Lisa Snowdon’s promotion of this neck firming serum gain widespread acceptance, I made the decision to try it out. I was pleasantly surprised by the cost.

Lisa Snowdon, a This Morning presenter, described using BOOST LAB’s hero product, Edelweiss Neck Firming Serum, for two weeks in a piece on sponsored content that I covered a few months ago.
Sales of this skincare formula quickly increased, which is largely attributable to how affordable it is ($24.99 for a 30-ml bottle, compared to many other neck creams available today).
Since then, I’ve been eager to try it on myself, especially since I only recently finished a bottle of various very pricey neck cream and had not personally seen any results. After using this BOOST LAB neck serum for three weeks, I discovered what…

Edelweiss Neck Firming Serum is a fairly runny serum texture rather than a cream, and it’s really pleasant to use and absorbs quickly. With thousands of five-star customer reviews and some pretty impressive before and after photos, it claims to “lift and smooths crepe-like, sagging skin, supports collagen production, and targets wrinkles &, ageing” on the BOOST LAB website.
And what did I discover about the results? A £25 topical product with no pre-approved active ingredients, for example, won’t lift sagging jowls, chisel you out a new jawline, or erase deep necklace lines; at the very least, you need professional aesthetic treatments, and possibly even surgery.
However, I thought this serum helped to improve the quality of my neck’s skin because I had a rough, crepey skin that was becoming quite dry after three weeks of using Edelweiss Neck Firming Serum.

You might also get these results from simply remembering to apply your face cream to your neck, but for me, using a particular neck product was the wake-up call I needed to focus more on this neglected area below my chin, and I did notice a difference.
I’d actually been using a very expensive, dermatologist-approved neck cream before this, which costs around £170, but I still thought the outcomes weren’t as good as they did with the BOOST LAB serum.
The bestseller neck cream at both Boots and M&, S. is PRAI Ageless Throat &, Décolletage Crème, £31.99, which is also highly rated.
