Federal Government gives ASUU 1 week ultimatum to call off strike

During a press briefing in Abuja this morning, the
acting Minister of Education, Nyesom Wike told
journalist that the Federal Government has given the
Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) one
week ultimatum to call off the ongoing strike.
Or else what? ASUU execs and President Jonathan
were supposed to meet this week but the meeting is
yet to hold. The ASUU strike began July 1, almost 5
months later, no resolution in sight. Sad!
The FG also said any Academic staff who fails to
resume on or before December 4th automatically
ceases to be a staff of the institution. Pro-chancellors
of the various universities and the National
Universities Commissions (NUC) have been directed
to ensure compliance of this directive.
