There are strong indications that the academic staff union of universities, ASUU will be holding a decision-time National Executive Council meeting today.
Today marks the end of a four-week strike-roll over, which started on August one.
Sources who spoke to AIT’s Abulu Osemuaghu and claim anonymity say the meeting is expected to take a decision on the outcome of state congresses held to deliberate on the latest offers by the federal government.
The sources say, the meeting is expected to suspend for a few months or declare a full blown indefinite strike.
