The National Industrial Court of Nigeria has ordered the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to return to work.
The Federal Government in a suit before the court had asked it to order ASUU to call off its seven-month old strike.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, on behalf of the Federal Government had filed the matter before the court by way of referral to resolve the issue of the ongoing strike by ASUU.
