The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) branch of Abia State University has called off its ongoing strike and ordered its members to resume teaching immediately as of Friday, August 28, 2026, according to a statement released by the union. The decision was made at the union's congress meeting held on Friday, where representatives discussed the issues that triggered the strike.
The union, however, expressed worry over the ongoing suspension of Professor Nnamdi Nwaeze. The union has given the university management until Friday, September 4, 2026, to recall Nwaeze and lift his suspension. If the management fails to do so, the union will have no choice but to resume the strike. The branch leadership thanked the members for their unity, resilience, commitment, and support during the strike period.
