The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has denied reports that it has suspended the indefinite strike action, IgbereTV reports.

This denial comes after a statement started making the rounds online with the subject, "Notice of suspension of ASUU indefinite strike action of all member universities across Nigeria."

ASUU shared a screenshot of the statement on Twitter and called it:

"fake news".

It added that,

"The Federal Government has said it will resume meeting with the Academic Staff Union of Universities on Friday.

"The Ministry of Labour and Employment disclosed this on Wednesday night."

More woes for student.
Imagine being in 100L 2019 and still there by 2021. Wahala

Wahala be like bicycle

The news and the twitter handle that quoted it fake are both FAKE. How many times will ASUU tell you they didn't operate any social media handle
BTW, there is end in sight

FG has met their match in ASUU.

Using students future as a bargaining chip and fighting tirelessly for your wallet
Amidst all their proposal agitation NONe reflect hollisticall the need of a student.


Ndi Ara!!!

This one off me

something is cooking between ASUU and FG, them wan shock una

ASUU told you guys to go and marry since the beginning of this year

No comment

ASUU is even proud that they're not on social media. Is that not madness?

ASUU don copy Nigerian Army with the Fake News slang

Something should be done about this ASUU strike nau. It's no longer funny. The students are the ones suffering it.

I knew it was false

Who strike help....

Lazy lecturers.

They only want to be collecting salary without working

Mad people

Very useless body called ASUU.

I don't know why FG is romancing this useless body, instead of them to use iron hand on them they are stupidly pleading. After their demands are met, tomorrow they will still demand for another huge amount of money, failure to give them, they embark again on strike. Infact FG should scrape this mumu union sef

Students are tired oooooo

Useless people

if ASUU wins this fight, everybody go ddey rush lecturer job

Fu*k d government
Fu*k ASUU
Fu*k everybody

Who useless greedy ASUU help? Always fighting for their pockets in the name of university revitalisation.

The moment FG will agree to their corrupt UTAS, they will suspend the strike. And other government entities will also come up with their payment system in the name of peculiarities. SAANU and NASU has already form their own, PENGASSAN and others will follow.

Then the aim of IPPIS in tackling corruption will be rubbished.

OK
That one dey
