The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has declared seven days of fasting and prayer in all its commands to seek divine solution to the lingering strike by ASUU, which grounded Nigerian universities since July this year.
In a statement by his spokesman, Mr Okeh Emmanuel, the commandant-general of the corps, Prof. Ade Abolurin, who declared the fast, said the decision was motivated by the corps’ desire to bring about a quick end to the industrial action following the deadlock between the federal government negotiating team and the striking university teachers
