The need for academic infrastructure has been issues of public concern with the emergence of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). For more than thirty years in the history of Nigerian University system, ASUU have persistently drawn the attention of the Nigerian government to the challenge of academic infrastructures faced by the universities through industrial conflicts, negotiations and strikes. To overcome this challenge, ASUU entered a comprehensive agreement with the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) in 1992 and another in 2009 which included the provision of standard educational facilities in the universities among others. In spite of this effort, the non implementation of the agreement by the FGN over the years has resulted in the employment of strikes by ASUU when bargaining and consultation failed to yield desired result. The objectives of this study are to : assess the extent to which ASUU industrial conflict has affected classroom/ lecture theatre, ICT/ library, and laboratory/workshop/studio facilities in ABU, Zaria, for the period 2007-2017, with a view to ascertain whether ASUU industrial conflict has improve the provision of academic infrastructure in ABU, Zaria. This study adopted survey research design. The target population for this study is the academic and management staff of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Taro Yamane (1967) formula for deriving sample size was used to arrive at the appropriate sample size of 376 respondents. The data collected for this study were analysed using the combination of inferential and -descriptive statistics techniques. Simple linear regression was used to test and interpret the hypotheses with the help of statistical package for social science (SPSS 20.0) and also for data coding, data screening and other preliminary analysis. University management staff and some ASUU officials were interviewed through unstructured interview. The findings from the study revealed that ASUU industrial conflict has significantly contributed to the expansion, construction and renovation of lecture theatres, laboratories as well as ICT/library facilities which contribute directly to the teaching and learning process. The hypotheses tested indicated that a significant relationship existed (0.000) between ASUU industrial conflict and classroom/ lecture theatre in ABU, Zaria. The relationship between ASUU industrial conflict and ICT /library was positively insignificant (0.119). The relationship between ASUU industrial conflict and laboratory/workshop/studio facilities was positively significant (0.000) This study recommends that the Federal Government of Nigeria should endeavour to implement the 2009 agreement reached with ASUU. This would help to revitalise the University system. The study concludes that there is obvious deficit in academic infrastructural needs of ABU, Zaria which is undermining effective teaching and learning prior to Presidential intervention. Consequently, ASUU effort to pressurising for presidential intervention on academic infrastructural development of the Nigerian university system is imperative.
