The strike embarked by the Academic Staff
Union of Universities, Asuu is finally over! As
widely expected, the Unionist on Monday
afternoon called off its almost 6-months-old
strike after exhaustive deliberations during
the National Executive Committee (NEC)
meeting held at the Federal University of
Technology (FUT), Minna, the Niger State
capital.
A source at the Presidency in Abuja said
government had been made aware of the
happy development. “Since Christmas is
already on the way, we believe most schools
may wait till January before resuming,”.
The Minna meeting was called to ratify the
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
signed last Wednesday between the ASUU
leadership and the Federal Government.
The meeting was called in keeping with the
promise of ASUU President, Dr. Nasir Isa
Fagge, who said shortly after the signing of
the Mou in Abuja that the union would meet
within a week to decide on whether to call
off the strike which has crippled the
country’s public universities since 1st July,
2013.
So Relax and Enjoy the Christmas Festive
period guys and gals, but prepare to resume
school next year(January, 2014). Any
Universities who decides to resume this
December is OYO (On Your Own or better
still, On Their Own)
Oh, by the way, we heard the Lecturers are
not eager toreturn to class until they are
paid their almost six-months salaries.

Choi!
