PLACE YOUR ADVERT HERE

The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has expressed sadness over the ongoing strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

Recall that ASUU has been on strike since 14 February 2022, to protest over the non-implementation of its demands by the federal government.

The former governor of Anambra State took to his official Twitter page to call on federal government to collaborate negotiations with ASUU.

He wrote, “Our position is that ASUU strike has lingered for far too long. It is unconscionable, worrisome and unacceptable that FGN would allow such an industrial action to become almost intractable to the detriment of our students

“It’s time for FGN to engage in collaborative negotiations with ASUU, and in good faith, -PO”.
