The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has again, today extended its six-month-old strike. 

The decision was taken after the National Executive Council meeting at the union’s headquarters at the University of Abuja this morning.

A member of the union, confirmed the development newsmen following the meeting of the striking varsity teachers at the University.

He did not, however, disclose how long the union extended the industrial action.

ASUU embarked on the strike on February 14th, 2022. It had then declared a four-week warning strike but after a month, the lecturers extended it by eight weeks, saying the government needs more time to look at its demands.

The union on May 9 further extended the strike by 12 weeks.
