Good step.

dis femi guy na him suppose be Senate president. I'm impressed.

All it took was blocking the road to MMIA.

What a country!

This stupid bloggers with misleading headlines, who told you when they meet with buhari it'll be solved

Stupid mofos

Boko Haram said "education was Haram" and this govt has never given priority to education since it came in. A terrorist leader once said during an interview that old grazing routes and reserves must be reopened to maintain peace and this govt has been tacictly trying to do that through RUGA and other policies. My question now is: why does this govt always share the same opinion and speak the language of terrorists? What the terrorists are using arms and violence to achieve is what this govt is using the instrumentality of govt to achieve, birds of a feather . NANS should continue the airports lockup to force the hands of this govt.

Phew!

One thing is clear. Nigerian educational system can't be the same again.

There was a time something like this happened and we had year 1 A and B.

With this, it would be Year 1 A - F

Best is to study in a sane environment without interruption.

Bubu do and return ooo!!
We wan go back school ooo!!!

Damnnn!!!! When will this Nincompoop be back from NY…

Someone who doesn’t even know anything about what he said in the Conference Meeting. I’m sure he might certainly sign the agreement Unless some cabals tells him not to sign it… lmao

So if Buhari decides to take his long annual leave this is how the students will be waiting for his final verdicts?



Osibanjo is what again?

Ok

Education in Nigeria is a joke.

Education is liberation.
It's an expensive tool many political elites couldn't afford and wouldn't want to advocate for.

Very few value it, cherish and promote it.
However it should have been a common or primary goal. It's one of the bedrock of a society that truly yearn for advancement and promotion of intellectual common wealth.

I drop pen.

APC na something else

Hmm, something tells me that a chunk of the newly ed voters won't be able to vote as they will be back in school by then.

ASUU to call off its strike between mid October and mid November.

AASU mater be like court case for nigeria,them don adjourn am again till 2024.e be like family inheritance too,every successive government must inherit am.

Nigeria my country

This government is so full of deceit

You wasted 7months out of 1yr

4years course turned to 6years or more

Osibanjo is in the UK

The number 1 and 2 citizen of the country are currently abroad

Watch how Buhari will mess the whole process up.

NANS should occupy all airports so that our politicians can travel by road. I just want to check something.

No one should believe this.

keep the pressure up. And, students take clue. Next time do not wait until 7 months. 2 days off school is enough for a protest.

Do not relent now. Keep the pressure up and demand more. Do not settle for the old. Demand more, they are beginning to feel the pressure. You have the upper hand now.
