ASUU, FG Meeting Adjourned Amid Strike Notice, Reason Emerges

In a significant development that has captured national attention, the Minister of Education is currently holding a high-stakes, closed-door meeting with the leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). This urgent meeting follows a strike notice issued by the union, causing concern throughout the academic community. The critical agenda of this meeting focuses on the federal government’s progress—or lack thereof—in meeting the union’s longstanding demands, according to TVC News.
