Results are that the framing of the ASUU strike was less frequent in the newspapers, but for Vanguard that had the most frequent of the reports with 51.9%. It was also found that insincerity in negotiation and implementation of MOA with 32(16.7%), protest 22(11.5%), and deligitimisation 13 (6.8%) were the most predominant themes found in the strike. Findings also revealed that ASUU strike has a dominant frames in the coverage of as definition/motivation with 43(22.5%) reports. It was further established on the direction framing of the strike that 132 (69.1%) news reports were positively framed. This research concluded that the newspapers did not accord much attention to the framing definition/motivation of the 2022 ASUU strike. Therefore, this study recommended, among other things that Nigerian newspapers, in their framing of collective action, place emphasis on the definition/motivation frame to justify the essence of such an action in public domain.
