The Academic
Staff Union of Universities on Tuesday confirmed that it had ended its one week
nationwide warning strike over the non-implementation of its 2009
agreement
with the Federal Government.
The President
of ASUU, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi, who said this in Abuja, urged lecturers to
return back to their classrooms.
“We are making
progress especially with the intervention of the Senate and in the next one or
two meetings, if we are able to get a clear path to the matter, we will avoid
the elongation of the strike.
“I have been
receiving these reports that ASUU says strike continues, no, the strike ends
today (Tuesday). All lecturers are to go back to work on Wednesday morning.”
Ogunyemi said
ASUU was hopeful of a positive outcome going by the response coming from the
Federal Government.
