The lecturers union held its meeting at the University of Abuja from Friday and has directed all her members against going to teach or involving themselves in any academic activity.

After asking its branches to conduct referendum among members to determine if the strike will hold, the result was an overwhelming yes by the branches to proceed on strike.
