What's causing #Nigeria's #ASUUchat strike? This has been pushed forward to the International scene on Aljazeera.

Nigeria’s Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has been on strike since July, bringing classes in 60 universities to a halt. This is just the latest round – the country’s public universities have missed three and a half years of academic sessions in the last 15 years.

Our community in Nigeria asked us to cover this story, so join us on Friday 16GMT/5pm local to weigh in on what's behind the country’s current university strike, how it's affecting students, and how it can be resolved.
