news coming in. Remember ASUU have been involved with Federal Government for weeks now.


The national industrial court of Nigeria (NICN) has ordered the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to call off its ongoing nationwide strike.

ASUU has been on strike since February 14 to press home the demand for improved funding for universities, a review of salaries for lecturers, among other issues.

Several meetings between ASUU and the federal government have ended in a deadlock.

Consequently, the federal government went to court to challenge the strike.

The government through its counsel, James Igwe prayed the court for an interlocutory injunction restraining ASUU from taking further steps as regards the strike, pending the determination of the substantive suit.

NANS should rest now

ASUU has also been banned from taking further steps concerning the strike, until determination of the substantive suit.

The same court should have ordered the FG to pay the lecturers

ASUU appeal the case

If y'all think ASUU will call off strike because of this..... Y'all need to go back and read ASUU strike history

Really ,

loss to ASUU. but the court could. the case is still on. court just asks them to resume while the case continues. at the end of the case which could take 4-6months, court could ask FG to pay them the 6 months salaries. for now, let them resume pending the outcome of the court hearing.


court cases are dragged

form 48 would be signed by court registrar to commit ASUU President for contempt of court.


Contempt of court involves fines and jail terms as penalty.

If dem no obey na to replace dem remain

Pay them for making students sit at home or what?

Lol. Too much of watching suits. If you think it's that easy FG would have done that months ago

rule for taking case to industrial court is that many overtures to court the union must have failed.


i think ASUU played into FG hands. instead of accepting the little they were given.

pay them for making students lose 7months of house rent? na so money take dey easy for u to make ?

arrant nonsense

how old are you?

ask osodeke

yesterday, osodeke said if ASUU are forced to resume by court today, students will bare the brunt of a forced teaching or un-enthusiastic teaching.

he questioned the quality of the teaching, he didn’t say he will disobey the court order. rest.

This is the best decision at this time.

However, the court has to order FG to pay the lecturers their 6months salary eventually.

The court provided an opportunity for both sides to save face in the egoistic struggle. I hope both sides utilize the opportunity

Who said this is a zoo?

Mtchewwww

so they can't appeal the judgment!?

i am sure if ASUU obeys, the court will eventually order FG to pay them their salary at the next court sitting whenever it holds.

The battle just begin.
ASUU will appeal the judgement at appellate court.


It will take divine intervention for this strike not to last till December.

Judolisco:

they can not until the main court case has been given a final verdict. they can appeal the final verdict of the court case, but have been prevented from appealing this resumption.

the sim is to get them teaching while court case drags on, court case can prolong for several months and even up to a year. no judge will want students to wait that long. they can’t appeal this order to resume while court case continues, but they can appeal the eventual outcome of the court case. (where court may rule that FG will not pay them their 7months salary, or where court rules FG must obey 2009 agreement, that is the one they can appeal which is yet to come), this instant order to resume, is non-appealable.

Congratulations to all Nigerian students

They better do o

Because ordering a hungry lecturer back to class without hope of getting paid in the nearest future is not a good thing to do

it’s not a good thing at all. many of them are already on debts. they may use students to sort their debts off and there might be many F in this semester results.

They'll resume research but not teaching

This is the comment I've been waiting for.

This is how they'll resolve the issue so it won't look like both parties (FG and ASUU) wasted the time and lives of students and others whose livelihood depend on academic activities in the universities.

Or resume and do two of their three duties research and community service. But not teach
