You are right.

Not all lecturers are in support of the strike.

In fact, my very close friend, a Graduate Assistant who is also running her Masters is so angry right now because the strike has stopped her from getting ahead in her career.

But the truth is that ASUU should have read the handwriting on the wall a long time ago and see that this government is not the best government to drag their issues with.

There is a point you reach in a fight whereby even the people you are fighting for will abandon you.

ASUU is almost at the point now.

Dvdpity:

Even the military cannot destroy ASUU.
Today naira is on a free fall to the dollar.

A professor of medicine earns less than 600 dollars per month, 600 dollars. And you want him to dedicate all his time and develop the students and the country? God have mercy on Nigerians.

E be like say hunger don dey hol' madam lecturer backnbeta small small...?

If not, why are you now telling your fellow ASUU strikers that enough is enough after SIX months?

Why don't you wait for ONE complete year so that we can conclude that ASUU can actually strike for a WHOLE season?

I hope you've realized now that the longer you stubborn ASUU lecturers continue to strke; the more the pay you guys are going to lose following the no work, no pay policy?

So you beter warn your fellow strikers.

backnbeta:

God forbid hunger! And don't get me wrong; the strike was and is still necessary and I hope some day the people will truly understand why the strike had to come. I just truly wish there is a better way to help the students so they won't lose too much.

JJuanMiguel:

It was reported that there were a lot of arguments in the NEC meeting.
That ASUU president is too controversial, seems he's politicising the strike based on his previous comments.

Stargurl20:
They're at the point. Not almost

GoAndVerify:


Ha ha ha ha ha

If care is not taken, ASUU will become the Public Enemy Number One now.

The tweets I read on twitter concerning ASUU shows that a lot of folks are no longer seeing reason with ASUU with regards to continuation of the strike.

FreeSpirited:
The funny gist is that many of those foolish students whose future is being mortaged and crippled, are still supporting APC and Tinubu for next election
.
Una go sit home tire

RaptObserver:
ASUU should not back down. I suspect Ngige is using this strike to get back at Tinubu cos he knows the longer the strike, the more anger Nigerians will feel towards APC.

If ASUU should call the striker off without tangible achievement next time they won't be able to mobilize for strike. And I hope those profs are not planning to announce unpopular results for politicians during elections? They can see the attitude of the politicians they so love to please.

MrLearned:



Is That So?

So in all your utterances ASUU is at right of holding students at ransom, because of selfish gain?










Mr Learned

dchamp234:
Since buhari is good in borrowing, why not borrow and settle assu or better sign an agreement with them, to be honest our universities are lacking behind in basic aminities and infrastructure to meet up with the rest of the world, imagine using a tiger generator to give lectures because no power supply, or using mega phone instead of a good sound system to address students. The Assu know what they are fighting for cos I have also been there like every other student in the forum. No good roads in the campuses, that's why they send their love ones abroad. They have ACs in their offices but a professor has only a standing fan in his office, I'm happy Assu mean business this time around, enough is enough.

mannobi:
It is now clear that ASUU is on another mission. The FG should desist from further negotiations with them. A few set of people holding our students to ransom because of their personal interest. All state universities must pull out of ASUU because ASUU leadership do not respect them.

kingi777:
ASUU should pursue their demand to the end. Do you know what it takes to do research..buy reagents, publish papers at the end of the day, you get employed as a lecturer and they start paying you with less that 130,000 as a PhD holder. Demoralising those in academia. A lecturer after suffering to develop himself to get higher qualifications cannot rent a descent house, buy a good car or even wear good clothes. The truth is that if the wrong is not corrected now, in the near future, nobody will like to be a lecturer in a public university.

israelmao:
This is the best for ASUU to strike a good deal and press home its demands because starting from September APC wll have to tell Nigerian electorate how much effort it has put in improving education sector and others in more than 7years of its governance.

dchamp234:

Brother please explain their"personal interest"
Most of us don't know?

MrLearned:


What are the the Universities doing with the IGR gotten from the students?...

What tangible thing have they done with it!

Yes APC is not to be supported in all ramification, but does ASUU have that authority to shutdown a whole Nation's Educational Sector just because of their selfish interest?

Always balance your Judgment sagaciously








Mr Learned

Honlucas:



I thought ASUU are set of intellectuals.. if the govt isn't really doing good accept the offer for now .. the student are at the receiving end...

It's high time they shift ground.

Why not take FG to industrial court

uchennaq:

You are not ok. How is ASUU holding students to ransom. I want you to be honest with me, if you are in a government university as a science student or you know someone in any government university that is a science student, how is their laboratory? How is their hostel? But the same government is stealing money, crude oil etc abi.

dchamp234:

Can you please explain or list the selfish interests

duduade:
The problem I see with Nigerian students is that they are in a hurry to go through their higher institution stage as half baked as they can be.... And proceed to go other countries to improve their lives

MrLearned:


Since the years past of the ASUU issues which development have you seen in the schools after they were given a percentage of their demands...

Do You know that these lecturers task their students every now and then?

Do you know how much schools generate from students per semester?...

Are you even a student to start with?








Mr Learned

JJuanMiguel:

If you know how much Federal universities generate in form of IGR with the structures Federal government put in place.
Just visit the school farmd alone and see what's there in crops and livestocks.
They also use students as their labourers in guise of "farm year"
