The statement reads in part: “The union yesterday said that it is joining the strike, in a statement issued to the public.”

“UNIMAID management had directed that the ongoing first semester 2019/2020 academic session examination be suspended.”

Filibus stated further that this decision followed the strike embarked upon by ASUU.
