The Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) are set to formalise a new agreement on Wednesday aimed at improving university education and ensuring stability across the system.
The ceremony will take place at the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) Conference Hall in Maitama, Abuja, and will be chaired by the Minister of Education, Maruf Alausa, and the Minister of State for Education, Suwaiba Ahmad, the Ministry of Education said on Sunday.
The agreement follows a recently withdrawn 14‑day ultimatum issued by ASUU after overnight discussions with the government.
The ministry stated that the deal reflects the government’s commitment to engaging stakeholders constructively and resolving industrial disputes through dialogue, mutual understanding, and cooperation.
It comes after years of negotiations between ASUU and the government and aligns with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which identifies education as a key driver of national development, human capital growth, and socio-economic transformation.
The ministry added that the agreement is expected to enhance industrial peace, create a more conducive academic environment, and boost confidence among students, university staff, and the wider public.
The event will bring together senior government officials, ASUU representatives, heads of tertiary institutions, development partners, and members of the media.
