The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has suspended its two-week warning industrial action declared penultimate week across public universities in Nigeria.

The Union President, Chris Piwuna, announced the suspension on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, during an organized press conference at the union’s national headquarters in Abuja, the Nigeria’s Capital Territory.

Piwuna said the decision followed the intervention of the Senate and other concerned Nigerians who appealed for dialogue between the union and the Federal Government.

He, however, noted that the National Executive Council (NEC) of ASUU resolved to grant the government a one-month window to address all unresolved issues that led to the strike.

Piwuna stressed that the union remained committed to defending the welfare of its members and the revitalization of public universities across the country, warning that failure by the government to act within the given period could trigger a resumption of the industrial action.
