“It should be noted that the ongoing examinations are half-way through and as soon as the strike is over, the examinations would continue,” the statement added.
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) had on Monday directed its members to join the strike.
The strike is in reaction to the assault on the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, allegedly by the Nigerian police and the Imo State government.
