The striking Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, will on Thursday, October 13, convene an emergency National Executive Council, NEC meeting, to review recent developments, especially the positive response from the federal government to its demands.
Ahead of the meeting, the leadership of the union has asked its zonal branches to collate the views of members through votes and transmit the outcome at the meeting to be held in Abuja on Thursday.
The outcome of Thursday’s meeting would result in the suspension of the strike late Thursday or Friday morning.
The leadership of the union held a meeting with the leadership of the House of Representatives on Monday, September 10 and hinted on calling off the eight-month old strike in the coming days.
