The federal government has stated that going by the discussion
and meetings had with the Academic Staff Union of Universities
(ASUU) in the past few weeks, the ongoing strike action by the
union which has paralysed academic activities in the
universities nationwide will soon be called off. This was
disclosed by the Minister of Labour and employment, Dr Chris
Ngige.[/font]
[font=Open Sans][/size][/font]
[font=Open Sans][/size]According to him, this is due to the fact
that the Federal Government has put into consideration some of
ASUU’s demands, including the submission of the union’s list of
outstanding payments, and the identification of some areas in
the universities in need of revitalisation as contained in the
signed 2009 agreement.[/font]
[font=Open Sans][/size][/font]
[font=Open Sans][/size]The minister said talks with the union
have so far been productive and fruitful, adding that the
federal government was optimistic that the strike would soon be
called off to pave way for students to resume academic
activities.[/font]
[font=Open Sans][/size]He said: “There are areas that are still
outstanding which we are going to address on the 17th. We have
the issue of shortfall of salaries, that of some federal
university workers. [/font]
