ASUU meets today for declaration of possible total, indefinite, suffocating strike

National Executive Council of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has announced that it will be meeting on Sunday evening, March 13, for a review of its ongoing one month total and comprehensive warning strike, which is coming one day to its expiration.

The crucial meeting which is slated to hold in Abuja will likely be for the declaration of a possible total, indefinite and suffocating strike.

This disclosure is contained in a tweet post on Sunday, March 13, by ASUU on its official Twitter handle, where the current strike action and other matters affecting the lecturers’ union will be discussed.

The tweet post from ASUU reads, ‘’ASUU Executives will be meeting this evening for declaration of a possible total, indefinite and suffocating strike.’’

Based on feelers and utterances of ASUU officials, it is quite unlikely that the union will back down on their industrial action but will rather extend the strike as there had not been any positive development since talks with the Federal government started.
