OAU, UNILAG, Others Announce Resumption Dates Over ASUU Strike

OAU, UNILAG, among others has announced their resumption dates over ASUU Strike.

More Nigerian universities have announced dates for the resumption of academic activities, Premium Times reports.

Some universities had earlier in the week made their announcements following the suspension of strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) on Friday.

The union said it suspended the strike to obey the ruling of the industrial court. The court had granted an injunction by the government to compel ASUU to resume work pending the determination of the suit filed by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige.

The union, however, said its demands have not been completely met.
