The National Strike Organising Committee of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has met to decide on the way forward concerning the ongoing strike by the union.
The committee is made up of senior officials of the union.
Furthermore, a source confirmed to Dateline Nigeria that zonal meetings will commence by the end of the week after which branches would go ahead with congresses.
“The National Strike Organising Committee will meet today (Wednesday), after which zonal meetings will commence this weekend and then congresses will be held.
“From there, information will be passed to our members on the next development; the president alone cannot decide, there are processes,” he said.
Meanwhile, ASUU President, Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, on Wednesday, urged Nigerian students not to vote for politicians who have their children studying in institutions outside the country.
Osodeke spoke on a Twitter Space Webinar organised by Premium Times and tagged, ‘ASUU strike, Revitalisation Fund and the Way Forward.’
“Anybody you believe cannot take care of your interests, whose children are busy studying abroad, who are living abroad, don’t vote for them.
“I repeat, you don’t need to vote for them, because you don’t vote for people who will take your life,” he said.
