During a press briefing in Abuja this
morning, the acting Minister of
Education, Nyesom Wike told journalist
that the Federal Government has given
the Academic Staff Union of Universities
(ASUU) one week ultimatum to call off
the ongoing strike.
Or else what? ASUU execs and
President Jonathan were supposed to
meet this week but the meeting is yet to
hold. The ASUU strike began July 1,
almost 5 months later, no resolution in
sight. Sad!
The FG also said any Academic staff
who fails to resume on or before
December 4th automatically ceases to
be a staff of the institution. Pro-
chancellors of the various universities
and the National Universities
Commissions (NUC) have been directed
to ensure compliance of this directive.
