Breaking: ASUU Joins Nationwide Strike Amidst Rising Tensions

In a significant development, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has thrown its weight behind the nationwide indefinite strike declared by the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC). This move, announced by ASUU's National President, Emmanuel Osodeke, signifies a united front against recent incidents, including the alleged assault on NLC President Joe Ajaero by the Nigerian police and Imo State government.

The directive from ASUU, outlined in a circular to its zonal coordinators and chairpersons, calls for immediate mobilization of members to participate in the strike starting from Monday midnight. ASUU, as an affiliate of NLC, emphasizes the need to protect the interests of Nigerian workers and support the leadership of the union.
