ASUU divided over strike suspension, holds NEC meeting

The Academic Staff Union of Universities may put off its indefinite strike on Thursday, barring a last-minute alteration (today).

Last Friday, the Court of Appeals ordered the union to end its strike.

Additionally, the House of Representatives intervened in the situation, increasing the likelihood that the union will shortly call off the strike.

“Members did not want to vote initially but you know ASUU is a union of intellectuals and we cannot be caught breaking the law. That was why we voted for suspension,” a union member present at the congress confided in The PUNCH.
