ASUU Vows To Appeal Court Order Directing Them To Call Off Strike

The Academic Staff Union of Universities has vowed to appeal the National Industrial Court’s ruling ordering lecturers to resume work immediately.

The union declared that it has begun collecting its legal team under the direction of renowned human rights advocate and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana in order to submit an appeal.

In a statement, Adelaja Odukoya, the union’s Lagos zone chairman, asked members to maintain composure and band together to fight to the end.

Recall that ASUU went on strike on February 14 to enforce its demands, which include approval of a payment network that the union prefers.
