Naija News looks at the top happenings making headlines on the front pages of Nigeria’s national newspapers today Monday, 28th October 2024.

The PUNCH: The Joint Action Committee of the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions and the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities has vowed to indefinitely shut down all activities in universities across the country from Monday (today) when they embark on an indefinite strike. A statement made available to The PUNCH on Sunday and signed by National President, SSANU, Mohammed Ibrahim, General Secretary, NASU, Prince Peters Adeyemi, said the ultimatum it gave the Federal Government over its withheld salaries expired Sunday midnight.


Vanguard: There are indications that the local currency is set to fully reverse its gains as the depreciation trend enters a new height, hitting N1,740/$1 in the parallel market at the close of trading last weekend.


The Nation: Not less than 20 states have either started paying the new minimum wage or will commence payment from this week, The Nation has gathered. After negotiations by the government, the Organised Private Sector and the Labour Centres, the minimum wage was raised from N30,000 to N70,000.


Daily Trust: Residents, business owners, hospital administrators, and others in Northern Nigeria have expressed concern as the region marks its eighth consecutive days without electricity, leading to significant disruptions in essential services and economic activities. The outage, which began last Monday, was triggered by the tripping off of the 330kV circuit transmission line between Benue and Enugu, as well as the one between Shiroro and Kaduna, thereby severely impacting numerous Northern states.
