The Federal Government has said it is still reviewing the implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding which it signed with the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU.
Chris Ngige, the minister of labour and employment, stated this in an interview with journalists in Abuja.
ASUU had on November 15, 2021, given the Federal Government an ultimatum of three weeks over the failure of the government to meet some of its lingering demands.
The lecturers had also threatened to embark on another round of industrial action, following the unfaithfulness in the implementation of the Memorandum of Action the Federal Government signed with the union upon which the year 2020 strike action was suspended.
Emmanuel Osodeke, the national president of ASUU, in an interview with The PUnch on December 5, 2021, lamented that despite the meetings with the minister of labour; only one of the demands by ASUU had been met.
When contacted by journalists, Ngige simply said the review of the MOU was in progress.
