The National Industrial Court has ordered the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), to call off its ongoing strike.
ASUU has been on strike since February 14 this year.
The Court invoked section 18 of the Trade Dispute Act and national interest of the Nigerian students to grant the request of the Federal Government for an order of injunction against the lecturers.
Justice Polycap Hamman issued the order for suspension of the strike while ruling in an application filed by the Federal Government asking that the University lecturers be compelled to go back to work pending the resolution of their demands for better working conditions.
