The case involving the federal government and the academic staff union of universities is postponed by a court until September 16th (ASUU).
The case was postponed by Justice Polycap Hamman so that both parties could file the required court documents.
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) requested permission to continue operations from the Federal Government, and the National Industrial Court (NICN) in Abuja granted it.
A statement by the Head, Press and Public Relations at the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Olajide Oshundun, said the matter was on Thursday, 8 September, referred to the Registrar of NICN by the Minister, Chris Ngige.
On February 14, ASUU began a four-week strike that has since been extended as attempts to reach an agreement with the government have failed.
