This is a sigh of relief for Parents and Undergraduates who have been languishing and idle at home following the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU.
The National Industrial Court of Nigeria on Wednesday ordered the Union to call off its ongoing nationwide strike.
Since February 14, 2022, ASUU has been on strike to press home the demands for improved funding for universities, a review of salaries for lecturers, among other issues.
The Federal Government and the Union have had several meetings that ended in a deadlock.
The defiance of the Union prompted the Federal Government to take ASUU to court challenging the strike.
The government, through its counsel, James Igwe, prayed the court for an interlocutory injunction restraining ASUU from taking further steps as regards the strike, pending the determination of the substantive suit.
ASUU is yet to respond.
