Breaking: The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Extends Strike By Two Months

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) extended its ongoing strike by two months.

On February 14 (ASUU) had declared a one-month warning strike in protest against the government’s failure to meet their demands.

The Academy Union held an emergency meeting of its National Executive Council (NEC) at the University of Abuja, yesterday.

(ASUU) President, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, said: “Having taken reports on the engagements of trustees and principal officers with the government, the union concluded that government had failed to satisfactorily address all the issues raised in the 2020 FGN/ASUU Memorandum of Action (MoA) within the four-week roll-over strike period and resolved that the strike be rolled over for another eight weeks to give government more time to address all the issues in concrete terms so that our students will resume as soon as possible.”
