The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has
suspended its eight-month-old industrial action.
A member of the union’s National Executive Committee, NEC,
confirmed this to NigerianEye early Friday.
ASUU decided to suspend the strike during a meeting of its
leadership that started on Thursday night and lasted into the early hours of
Friday.
The state branches of the union met over the Court of Appeal
ruling last week, following which members voted to conditionally suspend the
strike.
The Court of Appeal had issued an order to ASUU to suspend
the strike before its appeal of the ruling ordering lecturers to resume work
could be heard.
The National Executive Committee meeting was attended by
chairmen of the state chapters and national executive members at the ASUU
National Secretariat in Abuja.
ASUU had been on strike since February 14 this year.
