The suspension of the strike was contained in a press release signed by the chairman of Joint union, Ariks Samuel Bashayi. The release stated that the strike was suspended to pave way for the amicable resolution of the matters raised within the period of the plea by the state assembly, standing committee on education, science and technology.
The release therefore called on all its members to resume work tomorrow (Monday), assuring them that they would not be victimized in any way for partaking in the strike.
