B-R-E-A-K-I-N-G: Strike: Go Back To Classrooms, Appeal Court Orders ASUU

Muhammed Abubakar, Reporting

THE Court of Appeal, Abuja, has ordered members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to return to classrooms with immediate effect.

The appellate court gave the order in a ruling on an application by the ASUU, seeking permission for it to appeal against the order of the National Industrial Court which asked the striking lecturers to resume work.

The court also granted ASUU “conditional leave to appeal the order of the Industrial Court, while insisting that ASUU must obey the order of the lower court with effect from today, October 7.”

The three-man panel, led by Justice Hamman Barka, said for ASUU to file its notice of appeal within seven days, it must show evidence that its members have resumed work, immediately.

The panel held that failure to adhere to the order will make the appeal incompetent before the Court of Appeal.
