ASUU Strike 2013 Update: Strike Slated to End on Thursday Most union branches vote to end strike in meetings on Monday; national meeting set up for Wednesday to finalize movie The ASUU strike 2013 continues, but the latest update appears to be good news–most of the union branches voted in meetings on Monday to end the strike. The meetings were held across Nigeria following a marathon meeting between union leadership and President Jonathan Goodluck and Goodluck’s team of negotiators. Based on the results coming out of the branch meetings, it appears the clear majority of branches voted to end the strike. Next comes a National Executive Council meeting of the branch leaders, on Wednesday in Kano. If the council moves to end the strike then the final step would be meeting with President Jonathan again on Thursday, and then the strike would be over. Some university students are already preparing to return to their respective campuses, reported the Leadership. The president spoke at an educational exhibition in Abuja, saying: “We need therefore to be conscious of the impact on our children, institutions and the country at large, of unnecessary disruptions in our educational institutions. There is therefore the need to emphasize dialogue where conflict or any sort of misunderstanding arose. This is the civilized approach to doing things so as not to have negative effect on society.” See full voting results below: Voted to continue strike University of Jos University of Benin Lagos State University Voted to end strike: The University of Ibadan Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Uthman Dan Fodio University Sokoto Federal University of Technology MINNA The University of Lagos The University of Calabar Federal University of Technology Akure Ekiti State University Imo State University Bayero University Kano Delta State University Federal University of Technology Owerri University of Nigeria, Nsukka Obafemi Awolowo University
