Asuu Strike Finally Called Off Atlast!

The strike is finally over! As widely expected, the Academic
Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) this afternoon called off
its almost six months-old strike after exhaustive deliberations
during today's National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting
held at the Federal University of Technology (FUT), Minna,
the Niger State capital.
A source at the Presidency in Abuja said government had
been made aware of the happy development. "Since
Christmas is already on the way, we believe most schools
may wait till January before resuming,".
The Minna meeting was called to ratify the Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) signed last Wednesday between the
ASUU leadership and the Federal Government.
The meeting was called in keeping with the promise of
ASUU President, Dr. Nasir Isa Fagge, who said shortly after
the signing of the Mou in Abuja that the union would meet
within a week to decide on whether to call off the strike
which has crippled the country's public universities since July
