The Academic Staff Union of Universities has extended its ongoing strike by another eight weeks.
The announcement is coming as the Union’s one-month warning strike expired on Monday, March 14, 2022.
ASUU had a month ago declared a 4-week strike action in the first instance in its face-off with the Federal Government.

The development was announced by the Union on its Twitter handle after a meeting of its leadership in Abuja.
An official of the Union, Prof Abdulkadir Muhammad Danbazau, said the decision to extend the deadline was to enable ASUU and the Government to reach a consensus so that they do not have to go on strike again in the future.
He said eight weeks was enough for the Federal Government to take appropriate action.
