In the statement which was posted on Twitter, the union said it took the decision because the Federal Government failed to satisfactorily address all the issues raised in the 2020 FGN/ASUU Memorandum of Action within the four-week warning strike.

Osodeke noted that during its meeting on Sunday, the union’s National Executive Council (NEC) agreed to give the Federal Government another eight weeks to address all the issues “in concrete terms”. jamb results

“NEC acknowledged the intervention efforts, in various ways, by patriots and friends of genuine national development (students, parents, journalists, trade union leaders, civil society activists etc) to expeditiously resolve the crisis which government’s disposition had allowed to fester.

“However, ASUU, as a union of intellectuals, has historical obligations to make governments honour agreements,” the statement said.
