The Academic Staff Union of Universities has filed another appeal against the judgment of the National Industrial Court (NIC) of Nigeria.
Recall that a few weeks ago, the NIC ordered the striking lecturers to return to work.
It was also gathered that the court had yet to fix a date for the official hearing of the suit.
The counsel for ASUU, Femi Falana, SAN, revealed this in an exclusive interview with our correspondent in Abuja on Saturday.
Falana, who also shared the official documents of the appeal with our reporter, noted that the union was still awaiting the official hearing date from the appellate court.
ASUU had initially filed an appeal before the Appeal Court in Abuja, but the appellate court noted that it would not hear ASUU’s appeal should the union fail to obey the ruling of the lower court.
In line with the ruling, ASUU called off its strike on October 13, 2022.
