media platforms that it held of the union's National
Exectuve Council to discuss the possibility of calling off
the strike.
Chairman of the University of Ibadan branch of the union,
Dr. Olusegun Ajiboye, said the stories of the
meeting in Kano are rumours. He said in an interview
monitored on Diamond FM,
University of Ibadan, that there was no meeting
scheduled by the union for Saturday as they were
still observing seven days of mourning in honour of
the late former national chairman of the union,
Festus Iyayi.
The union was last week scheduled the meeting of its
National Executive Council to hold in Kano, where
they were expected to take a final decision on
whether to continue with their strike or accept the
FG's offer, but cancelled it when one of their
colleague and a former president of the union was

Kogi state.

have stayed at home for over four months remains
unknown.
