The Academic Staff Union of Universities, (ASUU) has said it’s studying the judgment of the Court of Appeal that ordered them to call-off the eight-month-old strike on Friday, adding that they will soon come up with their next line of action.
The appeal court on Friday upheld the ruling of the National Industrial Court with immediate effect.
In reaction to the court of Appeal judgment, ASUU President, Professor Emmanuel Osodeke, told Newsmen that the union is yet to officially receive the Appeal Court ruling.
He said the union would after receiving the judgment, go through the document with its lawyers and decide on its next line of action.
He said, “We have not received the ruling, when we get it, we will review it with our lawyer and then we can take the next step”.
Recall that the Federal Government, after failing to reach an agreement with ASUU decided to sue the body to the National Industrial Court on September 11.
The court on September 24, ordered the striking lecturers to return to class while negotiation with the Federal Government continues.
Not pleased with the ruling, the union headed to the appellate court to appeal the ruling.
