The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, will hold an emergency National Executive Council, NEC meeting on Thursday to review recent developments, especially the positive response from the federal government to its demands.
The union has directed its zonal branches to collate the views of members through vote during the meetings expected to hold tomorrow in its various zones across the country.
However, the outcome of the meeting would result in suspension of the strike on late Thursday or Friday morning.
ASUU president, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke has debunked the rumors flying around claiming that the union has suspended the 8-month-old strike, saying that the strike was yet to be suspended.
He, however,said the union was working towards the suspension of the action, stressing that the action would be dependent on the views of members from the zonal meetings.
Recall that the Speaker had on Monday, after a meeting with ASUU president and other members,assured that the strike would be suspended very soon, saying his meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari over the union’s action was fruitful.
