The Moses Oshio Adasu University chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities has officially halted its ongoing strike. Previously known as Benue State University, the institution had been paralyzed since June 1, 2026, due to grievances concerning unpaid promotion arrears and other unresolved demands.
A public statement released Wednesday by the local union chairperson, Dr. Ali Sule Ako, confirmed the end of the industrial action. This resolution was reached following the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding between the union, the Benue State Government, and the university leadership.
The union noted that this agreement demonstrates a shared dedication to resolving conflicts through negotiation. With the strike now lifted, all faculty members are expected to return to their posts and resume academic duties immediately. The union expressed gratitude toward students, parents, and the wider community for their support during the labor dispute.
