There are indications that the strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) may be called off anytime from now.
These indications emerged on Friday following a secret meeting of some branch chairmen of the union in Kano, which sources said might not be unconnected with an attempt at the resolution of the strike.
According to a source, the ASUU branch chairmen, who came in their cars, parked the vehicles at the old campus of the Bayero University, Kano and then left in a bus for a secret location for the meeting.
The source said the choice of a secret location by the chairmen might be for security reasons.
The branch chairmen at the meeting, it was gathered, included those from the North-West, South-South and South-West.
