At the resumed court sitting today, counsel to the FG, James Igwe, requested that the suit be given an accelerated hearing due to the urgency of the matter.
He added that since the matter was already in court, the union ought to call off the strike pending a ruling by the judge.
THE WHISTLER reported that after the first sitting in court on September 12, the judge presiding over the suit, Justice Polycap Hamman, adjourned the suit till September 16th (today) to give the FG and ASUU ample time to file all necessary documents pertaining to the suit.
