BREAKING: Court Orders ASUU To Call Off Strike, Return to Work

 

The  Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has been ordered to return to work.

 

National Industrial Court ordered ASUU to call off the ongoing strike which has lasted for seven months.

 

The Court invoked section 18 of the Trade Dispute Act and national interest of the Nigerian students to grant the request of the Federal Government for an order of injunction against the lecturers.

 

Justice Polycap Hamman issued the order for suspension of the strike while ruling in an application filed by the Federal Government asking that the University teachers be compelled to go back to work pending the resolution of their demands for better working conditions.
