After three months of industrial action, the Academic Staff Union of Universities has called off its strike. The leadership of the academic union also directed its members to resume work on Friday February 8th.
National President of the union, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, made this known on Thursday during a press briefing at the Nigeria Labour Congress complex in Abuja.
The striking lecturers took the decision after a meeting with representatives of the Federal Government led by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige.
ASUU embarked on the strike in November 2018.
