The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has given the Federal Government of Nigeria 21 days nationwide strike notice.

The union, according to a report sourced from Vanguard Newspaper blamed Federal Government of Nigeria’s failure to honour the agreements they reached earlier for the decision to embark on the strike.

The union, according to a report sourced from Vanguard Newspaper, said “the notice was issued at the end of the NEC meeting, which was held at the University of Ibadan, and a copy is expected to be transmitted to the Federal Ministries of Labour and Education.

“It is not an ultimatum but a strike notice. We are giving them 21 days’ notice, after which we shall embark on strike.

“Our aim for putting out the notice is that it is a requirement under labour laws so we are trying to ensure that all our actions are done according to the law,” the source said.

Recall that ASUU had threatened to embark on strike over non implementation of agreements reached with the federal government.
