We're Ready to Call of Strike - ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has reiterated readiness to call off its lingering strike.

The union said it would take less than 24 hours for academic activities to resume once the federal government signs its latest minimum demands.

This was disclosed by ASUU president, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, while speaking at the National Town Hall Meeting on Tertiary Education in Abuja on Thursday.

Addressing attendees in the event ‘The Locked Gates of our Citadels – A National Emergency’, Osodoke stressed that ASUU is more than willing to reopen schools.

He, however, said the calling off of the strike would only be possible if concrete agreements were reached with the Federal Government.

He said:

“On all these issues, we have given the government a minimum that we can accept, but they have not responded on the issue of revitalization, on the issue of earned allowance and on issues that we have all discussed.

”We negotiated and agreed that they should sign and this is very simple, not more than one day.

”On UTAS and IPPIS, we say release the report of the test you did and let’s look at the one who came first and take it as we agreed.

”So we have given them the minimum we want and we have to come down and they can do it in one day if there is a will.”

“Just as we did in 2014, they should come and ensure that we do that, we can even have the meeting openly so that Nigeria will see what we are discussing.”
