This is contained in a communiqué signed by the Chairman of the committee,
Prof. Kimse Okoko.
The communiqué issued at the end of the committee’ meeting to discuss the
lingering strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and other
issues affecting the Nigerian University System, “noted with satisfaction the
outcome of the referendum conducted in all branches of ASUU nationwide which
voted 60-40 in favour of the suspension of the ongoing ASUU strike.”
The communiqué stated that the committee's decision to call for the re-opening
of the universities which was unanimously agreed upon by all Pro-chancellors is
based on the outcome of ASUU vote and the negative effect of the strike on the
university system, students , parents and the nation as a whole
It therefore, directed all Vice-Chancellors to comply with the committee's
decision.
