Don't really know who to pity....


Is it Jonathan's federal government that is almost 'broke' and therefore can't afford to pay all ASUU demands....

Or ASUU that feels federal government wants to renege on the 2009 agreement entered with ASUU....

Or 'Alutarized' Nigerian students turned into grasses for the two feuding elephants to trample upon....

Or Angry parents/benefactors of these students....

IT SHALL BE WELL ONE DAY, SURELY, WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE IN POWER.

From your written grammar here it shows you either not an undergraduate or a terrible one at that.

ASUU has withdrawn from the negotiation with FG.
Students, please brace up and get yourselves busy with some part time jobs because this strike aint seeing resolution soon.

LATEST ON ASUU STRIKE
FG Directs ASUU To Go Back To Classroom
Despite the resolve on Thursday by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to continue the
on-going strike until all agreements signed in 2009 are reached, thefederal government, on Friday,
ordered that lecturers should go back to classrooms after it had disbursed the sum of N30 billion for
earned academic allowances.
The directive which was given by the secretary to the government of the federation, Sen Anyim Pius
Anyim, during a meeting between the federal government and the vice-chancellors of the 61 public
universities, stated that "Government, hereby, urges every staff of the nation's universities to return to
work as all issues are being resolved."
He said with particular reference to the contentious issue of earned allowances, every staff of the
universities that is so entitled should verify his claim with the university council and accordingly get
paid as "from the foregoing, it is obvious that government has demonstrated sufficient commitment to
the implementation of the 2009 FG/ASUU agreement.
"After series of discussions, government has now provided N30 billion to support the university
councils in settling the earned allowances. The amount will be disbursed to the various university
councils which are in the position to know who is entitled to how much after verification."
He revealed that "Traditionally, universities pay this to deserving staff but because of the amount
which ASUU now claims as arrears, government has decided to assist the university councils to pay"
as government did not receive any computation of amount involved until February, 2013.
"By this computation, ASUU is claiming N92 billion as arrears for three year's payment based on
percentage rage of between 15 and 20 per cent of personnel cost."
While there was consensus that revitalising the tertiary institutions is of critical importance to the
nation, Anyim noted that "when put together, the amount of funds from the budgetary and non-
budgetary sources that goes into the sector is quite huge but without corresponding impact.
While acknowledging the contributions of the Non-Academic Staff Union, NASU, Senior Association of
Nigerian Universities, SSANU, National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, and other
stakeholders, Anyim reiterated the government's resolve 'to bringing the students back to school and
appreciated the patience of parents and students as government is making every effort to revitalise
the university system."
It would be recalled that on July 2, 2013, ASUU declared what it called "total and indefinite strike"
over issues it says has remained unresolved pertaining to an agreement it reached with government
in 2009.

Thank you my sister for the update. I wonder why some uninformed characters masquerading as students spread false info around.
Moreso, the only reason the FG is ordering the lecturers back to the classroom is because the FG is insincere.
When the signed agreement is fully met by FG, the lecturers will naturally return to the classroom.

Story Story.
This sort of govt tactics failed in the Fuel subsidy protests saga, and will surely fail again in this case.
