In a motion dated 30 September, 2013, Barrister Onwe is seeking an order of court to compel ASUU to call off the strike it embarked upon in protest over the unwillingness of government to implement certain aspects of the agreement they reached over the parlous state of Nigerian universities and other issues.
In a 15-paragraph affidavit filed along with the motion, Onwe is asking the court to declare that the indefinite strike embarked upon by ASUU, leading to the closure of government owned universities for three months, violates the fundamental rights of the students affected.
He argued that the continued strike action by ASUU has traumatized many students who now engage in all sorts of vices.
Onwe posited that the plight of the affected students has worsened as their contemporaries in private universities continue to attend lectures while they remain idle at home.
He urged the court to compel ASUU to open the universities for lectures to resume while their negotiation with the Federal Government continues.
No date has been fixed for hearing of the suit.
