The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) rose from a two-day
National Executive Council Meeting (NEC) on Saturday in Kano with a
resolve to keep mum until it met with President Goodluck Jonathan.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the meeting was held at an undisclosed venue, away from the ASUU secretariat.
However, a reliable source in the association who spoke with NAN on Saturday, in Kano,
said: ‘’ASUU has decided to meet with President Jonathan before making whatever decision they took during the meeting public.’’
The source added that 60 per cent of the members wanted the strike called off while the remaining 40 per cent wanted it to continue.
NAN recalls the NEC meeting was billed to hold two weeks ago but was postponed following the death of a former ASUU President, Prof. Festus Iyayi in a road accident in Lokoja. (NAN)
