The notices instructed members to comply fully with the strike, following a resolution of ASUU’s National Executive Council (NEC). At FUBK, chapter chair Dr. Abdulrahman Yusuf Bashir said lecturers were directed to stay away from classes, accreditation activities, conferences, public lectures, and to suspend all official meetings for the duration of the warning strike.
