<p>According to Osodeke, the union and the Federal Government are meeting to address its demands which led to the ongoing strike.</p>
<p>The ASUU President speaking on when the union would end its strike said the decision of the Federal Government would determine the next step.</p>
<p>Osodeke while speaking during an interview on Channels TV said ASUU will call off the strike if the Federal Government agreed to its demands at the meeting.</p>
<p>He said, <em><strong>“If we go into that meeting tomorrow and the government says, what you have bargained for, we are willing to sign, the strike will be called off.”</strong></em></p>
<p>This is coming after the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo blamed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the ongoing industrial action of the ASUU.</p>
