The Court of Appeal in Abuja will today hear the appeal of the Academic Staff Union of Universities against the ruling by the National Industrial Court.

This is as negotiations and talks have continued between the House of Representatives led by the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila and the union.

Gbajabiamila-led delegation would meet with the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari

ASUU had on September 23, 2022, filed 14 grounds for appeal against the ruling of Justice Hamman Polycarp of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, which ordered that the striking lecturers go back to work pending the determination of a suit the Federal Government filed to query the legality of their strike.

The interim injunction directing ASUU members to resume work followed an application the Federal Government filed through its lawyer, Mr. James Igwe.
