President Muhammadu Buhari has begged members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to call off their ongoing strike.
Buhari said the striking union should consider the plight of the students and called off the industrial action.
The President made the appeal at the 19th National Productivity Day Celebration and Conferment of National Productivity Order of Merit Award, held at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja.
He also urged the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, to exercise patience as the government tries to resolve the crisis.
