Asuu vows not to call ov strike The striking university lecturers have vowed to continue their five-month strike. At a brief press briefing in Abuja on Monday, the president of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Nasir Fagge, told journalists that the strike would continue until the unions demands were met by the Federal Government. He said the union would never be cowed. We shall bow only to what we, as academics, are convinced would serve the interest of Nigeria and its people – no matter their ethnic, religious or class origins. This is where we stand. We shall never be cowed, Mr. Fagge said. The Supervising Minister for Education, Nyesom Wike, last week Thursday gave the lecturers a seven- day ultimatum (till December 4) to resume work or lose their jobs. Culled From Premium Times
