BREAKING: ASUU threatens fresh nationwide strike over federal varsities’ condition

University students may be forced to return home any time soon as their lecturers are threatening another round of strike.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) says its members will embark on a nationwide strike over management, administrative and other issues affecting the universities.

President of ASUU, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, spoke on the vexed issues on Tuesday at a press conference in Abuja.

He lamented the absence of governing councils in all federal universities across the country among other issues the government is yet to address.

He recalled that the Federal Government dissolved governing councils of the universities in May last year.

Osodeke therefore asked Nigerians to hold the government responsible for any decision it might take to protest the action of government.
