The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has voted to embark on one-month warning strike to press home its demands from the federal government.
This was the outcome of the recently concluded National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the union.
A source told Vanguard;
“We just want to give the government a long rope hoping that it would see the need to avoid a total paralysis of academic activities in the nation’s universities. We are parents too and have our children in the system but we cannot watch and allow the total collapse of education in the country.
“Our agitation is in the interest of all and if the system is made better, we will all enjoy it. Prominent personalities in the country have waded into the matter but the government seems recalcitrant. Our National President would explain more when he briefs the press later today,” he said.
