ASUU: UNN Resumes, Students Return To Campus On October 22

 

Recall that ASUU suspended the strike last Friday, following a series of meetings, negotiations and disagreements which climaxed with an Appeal Court ruling that the academic body should first obey the National Industrial Court order by calling off the strike. This is also coupled with the intervention of the House of Representatives leadership to resolve the impasse.

The UNN was on the verge of concluding its second semester when the union began the strike over  eight months ago
