The Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities, ASUU, has
officially suspended its one month, six days strike.
ASUU said it was suspending the strike till end of October for
government to fulfill its pledges.
The union directed university lecturers to resume duty from Tuesday.
The suspension of the strike was announced on Monday evening
after a meeting with the government delegation.
At the meeting, a memorandum of understanding was signed with
the federal government delegation led by the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige.
Mr. Ngige had earlier said both parties produced “collective
agreement of action” after the meeting.
ASUU embarked on an indefinite strike on August 13, following
government’s failure to implement the agreement reached with the union in
November 2016.
