A crucial National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) is going on to decide on offers made by the Federal Government team last week to persuade its striking to return to work.

Ahead of the NEC meeting, various zones of ASUU had met also to consider the offer as well as inputs from the various branches for presentation to the NEC.

ASUU had embarked on an indefinite strike on August 14, accusing government of failure to redeem the of agreement signed in 2009 and Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) endorsed by both parties in 2012.

One of the zonal coordinators of ASUU told Saturday Sun: “I must state that the offer from the Federal Government is a far cry from our ’ expectations. Let us see what comes out of this emergency NEC meeting. Many of our are not happy with the way government is handling our demands. It is up to NEC to take a position on the on-going strike. Our are prepared for a long strike, but it depends on the government.”

He debunked a claim by the Education Minister that ASUU would call off the strike this week, saying, “we didn’t promise the minister anything. We told the government team that we are going to consult with our on what government has offered”.

He described the likely outcome of NEC meeting, as 50-50, saying wanted to see concrete evidence that government was serious about meeting the demands. The minister, Mallam Adamu Adamu, had, itted that “government has not fulfilled its part of the bargain, even though we are unhappy that ASUU went on this strike without following due process and giving us good notice. We realised that we promised something and we didn’t fulfill it.

ASUU vs FG second leg
icedfire(m): 9:16am On Aug 26, 2017
craze people, what is ASUU as a body doing to improve the educational sector?

in almost all universities in Nigeria we have lecturers who wouldn't you except you 'sort' them. some openly threaten the girls , no sex- then expect a carry over. some are so sadistic that they tell you : regardless of what u write, they can't give you an A. if ASUU can sanitize their system, we won't have graduates who can't spell 'graduate'.

if federal government increases their allowances, will it stop them from selling handouts? federal govt should give them that as a condition for any increment in salary

This ASUU people are too greedy,, they are only after their own personal interest not University infrastructure,
All they do is compare themselves with Senatora and House of reps, We all know they are thieves

Primary and Secondary school teachers deserve more attention than this greegy ASUU

If it had been when Prof Osibanjo is the Acting President, the strike will be suspended. But since Buhari has taken over, the strike continues.
