The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has extended its warning strike by another two months.
The union reached the decision at its National Executive Council (NEC) meeting which started on Sunday night, March 13, and ended early Monday morning.
The NEC meeting was held at the union’s national secretariat at the University of Abuja.
A member of the NEC told Vanguard that a statement was already being drafted by the leadership of ASUU and that as soon as it was ready, it would be distributed.
The source said: “Yes, we have extended the strike by eight weeks pending when the Nigerian government would find the university system worthy of the desired attention. A statement is currently being drafted to that effect. We will make it available soon.”
