The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has ordered the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to engage in an amicable resolution of their dispute.
The three-man panel of the court presided over by Justice Hamma Akawu Barka, on Wednesday, directed the lead counsels of both parties to convey its opinion to their clients.
Other members of the panel are Justices Biobele Georgewill and Bature Isa Gafai.
ASUU had filed an appeal to challenge the interlocutory injunction by the National Industrial Court of Nigeria directing its members to call off its ongoing strike.

When the matter was called, the lead counsel to ASUU, Femi Falana, SAN, told the court that he brought two motions.
Falana withdrew the one dated September 23, 2022, and upheld the one dated September 28, 2022.
He said he served the motion for stay of execution of the interlocutory injunction on the office of the Attorney General of the Federation.
The Federal Government counsel, James U.K. Igwe, however, said he has not been served with the motion.
The court after offering its opinion on amicable resolution of the dispute by both parties, adjourned the matter to Thursday for further proceedings.
