The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has suspended its strike action at Abia State University, Uturu. Chairperson Chidi Mba and Secretary Victor Obisike announced the decision in a statement. The suspension followed a resolution reached at ASUU's congress meeting on August 28, 2026, after members reviewed the issues causing the industrial action.
Members expressed concern over the ongoing suspension of Professor Nnamdi Nwaeze of Economics, and gave the management until September 4, 2026, to recall him and end the suspension. Failure to comply would force ASUU to resume the strike. The union praised the staff for their unity and resilience during the strike.
