Latest news about asuu strike call off

I'm happy to help! However, I need to clarify that ASUU (Academic Staff Union of Universities) has not officially called off its strike. In fact, the strike has been ongoing since February 14, 2022, and the union has not announced any plans to call it off.

That being said, there have been some recent developments that may be of interest to you:

  1. Meeting with the Federal Government: On March 7, 2023, ASUU held a meeting with the Federal Government, led by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige. The meeting was aimed at resolving the outstanding issues that led to the strike. While the meeting was described as "fruitful," no concrete agreements were reached, and the strike remains ongoing.
  2. Court Injunction: On March 10, 2023, a Federal High Court in Abuja issued an injunction restraining ASUU from continuing its strike. However, the union has refused to comply with the injunction, citing the government's failure to meet its demands.
  3. Negotiations Ongoing: Despite the ongoing strike, ASUU and the Federal Government are still engaged in negotiations to resolve the outstanding issues. The union has been pushing for the government to implement the 2009 FGN-ASUU agreement, which includes the payment of outstanding salaries, allowances, and other benefits.
  4. Students' Protest: In recent weeks, students from various universities have taken to the streets to protest the ongoing strike. The protests have been peaceful, with students calling on the government to resolve the dispute and allow them to return to classes.

It's worth noting that the strike has had a significant impact on the academic calendar, with many students facing uncertainty about their future. The situation remains fluid, and I'll do my best to keep you updated on any new developments.
