ASUU to call off strike soon – Falana

Femi Falana Buhari is tired 2023 presidency

Respected Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has said the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) will call of its strike soon.

ASUU has reiterated its willingness to call off its eight-month strike. It expressed optimism that the ongoing talks between the Presidency and the House of Representatives leadership will yield positive results.

Falana, who is the union’s lawyer, stated this on Monday in chat with Channels Television. After the Court of Appeal in Abuja ordered the striking lecturers to resume academic duties.

“The legal advice that I will give to my clients is confidential. But I can assure you that the strike will soon be called off,” Falana stated.

Falana said he’ll advise his clients accordingly once the certified copy of the court order is made available to him.

“Advising clients to call off a strike is the most difficult aspect of my practice. On one occasion, Chief Gani Fawehinmi (SAN) and I spent six hours persuading Comrade Adams Oshiomhole and other NLC (Nigeria Labour Congress) to call off a strike in compliance with a court order. Our advice to ASUU will be based on the court order and other relevant reports.

“I am reasonably confident that the consultations between the House and the Presidency will yield positive results in the interest of the striking lecturers and the students,” he added.
