**Breaking: ASUU Suspends Strike at Taraba University after Govt. Makes Key Promises** The Academic Staff Union of Universities, Taraba State University branch (ASUU-TSU), has called off its strike action, which had been ongoing for weeks. This decision comes after the Taraba State Government and the university management signed a Memorandum of Action (MoA) with the union. The MoA was signed after a series of meetings between the Governor of Taraba State, Agbu Kefas, and the leadership of ASUU-TSU. According to the union's Chairman, Mbave Joshua, the decision to end the strike was reached after careful consideration of the commitments made by the government to address the outstanding issues that led to the industrial action. Some of the key issues that led to the strike include the government's failure to pay the backlog of lecturers' salaries, earned academic allowances, and the nonexistence of a pension scheme. The government has now agreed to address these issues, and the union is optimistic that normal academic activities will resume soon. The MoA is seen as a significant step towards resolving the crisis at Taraba University. The union has assured students, parents, and the general public that academic activities will resume as soon as possible, while closely monitoring the implementation of all agreements reached. The strike, which commenced on February 18, 2026, had forced the state government to take drastic measures, including establishing the Office of the Visitor in the institution to resolve the challenges. The union appreciates the patience and understanding of all stakeholders throughout the period of the strike and looks forward to the successful implementation of the MoA. This development is a welcome relief to students and parents in Taraba State, who had been affected by the strike. It also highlights the importance of dialogue and negotiation in resolving industrial disputes. As the union continues to work with the government to implement the MoA, it is hoped that this will mark the beginning of a new era of peace and harmony at Taraba University.
