Professor Emmanuel Osodeke, President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has said the union is prepared to end its strike.
Osodeke, however, said this could only be achieved if concrete agreements are reached with the Federal Government. He gave the assurance in Abuja, yesterday, at a National Town Hall Meeting on Tertiary Education tagged: ‘The Locked Gates of our Citadels – A National Emergency.’
He added that as far as ASUU was concerned, they “have given them the minimum we want and we have to come down, and they can do it in one day if there is a will.”
The Federal Government recently sued ASUU at the industrial court asking that ASUU be compelled to resume lectures. ASUU has been on strike for seven months.
