The Academic Staff Union of Universities on Wednesday suspended indefinitely, the National Executive Council meeting scheduled to hold in Kano, following the death of Prof. Festus Iyayi, the union’s president has announced.
Dr. Nasir Fagge told the News Agency of Nigeria that the meeting was cancelled in honour of the union former president who died in an accident involving Kogi governor’s convoy on Tuesday.
The union was expected to announce the suspension of the five- month old industrial action that had paralysed academic activities in the nation’s universities at the end of the now aborted meeting.
