ASUU strike: Date set as branches vote amidst call off

Branches of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) will commence traditional voting Tuesday and Wednesday over the ongoing strike by the union.

The decision of the various branches will be transmitted to the National Executive Council for final decision.

A highly-placed source within the NEC disclosed this in a chat with our correspondent in Abuja on Tuesday.

“We got the directive after the meeting with the speaker Monday. The intervention was timely. Branches will vote between today and tomorrow after which the decisions will be convened to the NEC,” the source said.
