ASUU set to suspend strike this week

the
Academic Staff Union of Universities
may call off the over four-month-old
strike on Thursday. National Executive Committee of ASUU
will meet on Wednesday night to
consider the position of the congresses
of the over 50 public universities on
the offer made by the Federal
government to revamp the
institutions.
The union met with a Federal
Government team led by President
Goodluck Jonathan last Tuesday in
Abuja.
The ASUU leadership, after briefing
the zonal coordinators on the offer,
had directed the local branches to
organise congress meetings between
Friday last week and Tuesday
(tomorrow).
