The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has warned that the ongoing three months strike will be extended if the Federal Government refuses to attend to its demands.
The National Chairman of ASUU, Emmanuel Osodeke, in an interview with DAILY POST, said the Union will meet with the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo to handle their demands.
“Where we are now, we will take the case above the minister, the president can direct the Vice President to handle it, he is a Professor, but they are busy running around the country.
“We will continue to be on strike; we will meet in one or two weeks and look at the situation, and if nothing, we will roll it over again, but I expect them to come and resolve this problem in the interest of the children,” Osodeke told DAILY POST.
ASUU has been on strike since February 14, 2022. Despite several meetings between the striking union and the federal government, the ongoing industrial action has continued.
