• Nnamani, expert task FG, union on ending the deadlock• Buhari govt has failed us, says Kogi TUC chairmanAs the second round of an eight-week warning strike by members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) comes to an end today, the union is preparing to announce an indefinite strike. Sources say the union’s national leadership will make its decision public today. According to reports, NEC had previously authorised the national leadership to direct members to go on indefinite strike if no tangible results were achieved during the eight-week warning strike. While ASUU was into the second round of its warning strike, other staff unions in the university system also downed tools. MEANWHILE, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) in Kogi State has criticised President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government over the lingering strike.
