The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has shelved its plans to block major highways especially the Kaduna-Abuja road.
The student body cited security reasons and need to respect constituted authority as reasons for suspending the strike.
It also added that there were appeals from higher authority asking that the proposed protest be shelved.
The students’ union, through the Chairman, Taskforce on End ASUU Strike, Dominic Philip, said the union suspended the protest following the intervention of the Commissioner of Police in the state and other security agencies.
The Kaduna Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Mr. Samuel Aruwan, had, on Tuesday evening warned the student body of the negative consequences of such an action.
It was gathered that fierce looking security personnel were visible at the proposed venue to forstall any breakdown of law and order.
The security personnel were seen stand at strategic locations at Gonin Gora road and some communities where the students could be hanging around.
However, the National Industrial Court earlier today ruled that ASUU should call -off its seven-month old industrial action.
