This was the decision of the Nnsuka zonal meeting of the union held at the Federal University, Lokoja on Monday.
The union said the congress was called for the purpose of mobilizing and sensitizing its members on the pending issues that the federal government has been foot-dragging to implement in the interest of academic staff of universities.
Chairperson, ASUU Federal University Lokoja, Dr Silas Joshua who addressed newsmen shortly after the Congress involving seven universities that made up the zone said stakeholders in the educational sector should hold the federal government responsible if educational activities are suspended.
He said the Federal government has failed to honour the agreement signed with ASUU in 2020.
He however urged members of ASUU to exercise patients and wait for the decision of the national body of the union.
