The Academic Staff Union of University, ASUU, has announced the commencement of an
indefinite nationwide strike with immediate effect. The decision was announced
at the end of an emergency meeting on Sunday night. Briefing newsmen after the closed door meeting, ASUU president,
Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, said the strike will be total and commence with
immediate effect. He listed the
reasons for their action to include:
1. Failure on the side of the government to honour the memorandum of action
signed between the union and the federal government in 2017
2. Renegotiation with ASUU which the government intentionally ignored with impunity. Professor Ogunyemi therefore directed all the state chapters to ensure full compliance until their demands are met.
