JUST IN: Finally, ASUU Calls Off 9 Months Strike

The Academic Staff Union of University (ASUU) says it has “conditionally” called off its 9 months old strike action.

Channels Television reports that ASUU National President, Biodun Ogunyemi, disclosed this in a press briefing on Wednesday.

According to him, the decision was reached after days of consultations with its members and the National Executive Council (NEC).

But ASUU stressed that it would resume strike if federal government fails to fulfil its part of the agreement.

THE WHISTLER had earlier reported that Nigerians took to their social media handles on December 10 to voice out their feelings about the stand-off between the federal government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) regarding “agreement” to resume lectures.

But ASUU had said that the federal government must pay all salary arrears of lecturers before it can return to the classroom.
