ASUU Strike: Compiled Statements Of President Goodluck On ASUU Strike by phemmyjohnson: 1:13am On Sep 30, 2013 |
This is the full compiled statements of GEJ on ASUU strike::: He accused the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, of being unnecessarily stubborn on their demands. PRESIDENT JONATHAN SPEAKS::: >>>”That is why we released the sum of N100 billion to uplift the infrastructures of the universities across the country. We cannot solve all the problems overnight. ASUU strike is very unfortunate. Throughout this period, government decided to take inventory in our schools. Our technical team set up visited all the schools and present video and pictures to the Federal Executive Council and I directed the Vice President to ensure that the same report was presented to the National Economic Council meeting which has governors as members. “ After seeing those documentations, we said this must change, for us to take that inventory it means we are committed to improve the university infrastructure, so for ASUU to go on strike on this is unfair. They didn’t prompt us to take this inventory we did it voluntarily. No government wants to expose itself, so for me to do this, it shows we are committed. I didn’t expect the strike to last this long; that it has lasted this long, is unfortunate. “I call on ASUU that for the sake of our children to return to class. Their earned allowances is supposed to be paid from internally generated revenue. We are only assisting them, it is not mandatory. Until Nigerian universities is autonomous and yet we don’t have a say on how it is run. Autonomy without responsibility will lead to anarchy. Even if we have all the money in the world we can’t solve the problem now and we have released N100 billion outside the line budget, they should return to class. “ASUU members are humans they should look at the students. This is one government that has been sincere but this cannot be done over night. We took inventory and is the first time we got the document to establish the level of decay in our system. So ASUU can’t insist we close down government to solve ASUU’s problem. We should all plead with ASUU to return to class. The state own universities are owned by states so why should state universities go on strike when federal government is not doing well? Then we must begin to look at labour laws because of these excesses”, Jonathan declared. STUDENTS!! GOD HELP US... Views?? [b][/b][color=#000099][/color] |

Sirkris: from what the president said, he won't add a dim to what has already been released to ASUU. even if they stay at home for only God knows when.I've vowed not to comment on any ASUU's issues again but with wut u've said, it seems am gonna shift ground on this. I think u re right when u said 'he won't add a dime'. For crying out loud, ASUU is not d only professional body in Nigeria, so y re they doing this to we students by embarking on a long illegal strike... It seems these ppl re not thinking @ all cos if they do, they'll know it only affects d students and not FG.. Perhaps, their so called earned allowances should be generated via school internal revenue..To be candid student re paying more than enough. I've been saying this b4, state varsities av no rights whatsoever in joining hands with the federal varsities to strike since they re founded and funded by d states. Well, am urging them to call off d strike soon with an immediate effect. |

For crying out loud, ASUU is not d only professional body in Nigeria, so y re they doing this to we students by embarking on a long illegal strike... It seems these ppl re not thinking @ all cos if they do, they'll know it only affects d students and not FG.. Which universities are you even talking about? The least university in South Africa is better than our best. Don't even mention Egypt or Kenya? Same applies to our hospitals, what has the FG done to improve the hospitals? Why are they all traveling out for check up? Why is the petroleum industry bill pending? Why is Farouk case and other high profile cases pending? Why is there serious attention to the divide in PDP rather than attention to National issues. Why is it easier to do bad things and very difficult to do good things? Why is it easier to grant amnesty to militants and bail out banks, and we cannot bail out education and health? Why is it that Nigeria is the only OPEC country that imports refined Oil. Why can't I have power supply for 72hours stretch and my fixed charge has been increased by 200% in 3 years (250- 750)? Why do we have several individuals who are billionaires without companies or who don't have a minimum of 100 people on their payroll? Which kind of business are they doing, that does not create jobs, yet they are billionaires? Finally, why can the EFCC prosecute again as of the old days and why has the judiciary joined alliance with corruption? One day someone will answer this questions, or a people will fight for their freedom, or a total revolution will occur. Please remember that a goat has teeth, so continue pushing it, one day it will bite you and you will wonder if it was a dog. 2 Likes |

Hearme:To start with, am predominantly talking of state varsities cos we all knows dat they charges exorbitant fees than dat of their fed counterpart..can u pls enlighten me of what use is acceptance,medical,huge tuition fees etc used for by d state varsities? Am not disputing d fact dat our leaders re bunch of corrupt entities, but will u tell me you've neither given nor taken bribe b4? U c most of us(citizens) re partaker of these corrupt practices.. Moreso,u lamented dat they travels abroad 4 treatment,yes I agreed but inspite of this, NMA rarely embark on such prolong strike unlike ASUU..They (ASUU) involves in different act be it extortion,molestation,selling outrageous shoddy handouts or what aview. Am quite sure there re fewer chances of those attrocities carried out by our lecturers I mentioned above happening in those countries u mentioned... Finally, am using this medium to urge ASUU TASUED chapter to join those state unis dat av opted out of this prolonged strike cos d earlier, d better. |

Hearme: why don't you port into the countries you mentioned? can you lead a revolution that took place in Egypt? even after that, has their been breath of fresh air? no body can achieve anything with confrontation. agreement whether signed or not are always renegotiated if need be. when subsidy protest started, youths lost their life and after that government decision stood its ground. |
