Lecturers at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) in Ogbomoso have suspended their eight months old strike.
This was announced on Wednesday by the Chairman, LAUTECH chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Dr Biodun Olaniran.
According to him, the strike action was suspended after the union’s congress held on Tuesday at the university.
His words: “After comparing the demands of the union and what the management has met out of the demands, and after extensive deliberations on the struggle so far, the union has resolved to suspend the strike immediately,” the chairman noted.
It will be recalled that the institution earlier called off the 8 months old strike and ordered students to resume on January 27, but the lecturers who went on strike over non-payment of salaries refused to resume stating that some of their demands were yet to be met by the Oyo and Osun state governments.
