JUST IN: ASUU updates Nigerians on strike decision

192

Members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) will finalise decision on an imminent strike at the end of an ongoing meeting at the University of Lagos.

A chairman of one of the branches, who asked to remain anonymous because he is unable to speak, said the most recent consideration is a warning strike.

“ASUU is considerate,” he added, “but the Federal Government’s actions are not helpful.”

“The least consideration, for now, is a warning strike. Some of our branch representatives feel we should commence strike outrightly but others advised that apart from the lecture free-day declared, we should embark on another warning strike before the full, indefinite strike.”

ASUU is expected to make the final decision on the strike by voting, but according to reports, no voting has been held yet.
