Strike: Nigerian students await final decision as ASUU NEC meets today
The National Executive Council of the Academic Staff Union of Universities will commence its meeting by 4pm Today.
The NEC is the highest decision-making body of ASUU.
The outcome of the NEC meeting will determine whether ASUU will call off its strike which began on Monday, February 14, 2022.
“The meeting will start by 4pm,” a member of the NEC confirmed this to our correspondent on Sunday.
ASUU had last week directed its zones and branches to organise congresses following the deadlocked meeting between the union and representatives of the Federal Government.
Some students who spoke to our correspondent expressed fears at the possibility of an indefinite strike.
A student of the University of Ilorin, Tajudeen Sanusi said, “I don’t even want to think about it. I am scared and the idea of an indefinite strike doesn’t speak well to me at all. I am still optimistic though”
