The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has suspended its two-week warning strike, granting the Federal Government a one-month window to address its demands.
The National President of ASUU, Prof. Chris Piwuna, made this known at a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday.
He said the suspension takes effect from midnight of Wednesday, October 22, 2025.
However, Piwuna warned that the union would not hesitate to resume the strike if the government fails to meet its demands within the next four weeks.
On October 12, ASUU declared a two-week “total and comprehensive” strike following the expiration of a 14-day ultimatum issued to the government on September 28.
ASUU based its two-week warning strike on the Federal Government’s failure to address issues concerning staff welfare, infrastructure development, implementation of the 2009 ASUU-FGN agreement, and payment of salary arrears.
