More units of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, including the University of Ibadan and Ahmadu Bello University chapters, have voted for the suspension of the strike by the union during chapter congresses held nationwide. The union met with a Federal Government team led by President Goodluck Jonathan last Tuesday in Abuja. Government has promised to inject N220bn yearly into the public universities for the next five years. The ASUU leadership, after briefing the zonal coordinators on the offer, had directed the local branches to organise congress meetings between Friday last week and Tuesday (today). This is to enable all the lecturers to make input into the action the union would take after its NEC meeting on Thursday.
