King’s College: Unity colleges resume as staff suspend strike

The Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) has suspended its strike concerning the concession of King's College, Lagos, allowing the reopening of the 115 Federal Unity Colleges across Nigeria. This decision was made during a meeting between the union leadership and Unity School coordinators in Kano on Tuesday. The union agreed to suspend the strike for a week to allow a seven-member committee to review the King's College concession document.

This followed two weeks of strikes by ASCSN and Parent Teacher Association (PTA) over the concession, which was set to resume on September 13. The original plan was for the colleges to reopen on Sunday, September 27, pending confirmation from the Federal Ministry of Education.
