Addressing a press conference in the Federal Universities of Technology, Minna, the Niger State capital, the National President of ASUU, Dr. Nasir Fagge, said the union had agreed to suspend the strike after a meeting of the National Executive Council which started on Monday.

Fagge also listed the components of the agreement which the union had with the Federal Government, which led to the resolution of the long-drawn crisis.
