ASUU threatens fresh strike in varsities

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) on Tuesday threatened to embark on a fresh strike over the absence of governing councils in all federal universities in the country.

The ASUU President, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, who gave the warning at a media briefing held at the union’s national secretariat in Abuja, also decried the Federal Government’s refusal to address the varsity teachers’ demands.

He has asked Nigerians to hold the government responsible for any action taken by ASUU to protest the May 2023 dissolution of governing councils in the universities.
