Prof Rufai says it is now unfair to ask her to speak on the strike.

The immediate past Minister of Education, Ruqayyatu Ahmed Rufai, who was sacked from the federal cabinet last month, has joined the ongoing strike by Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, which she desperately tried to break while in office.

PREMIUM TIMES enquries at Bayero Universities, Kano, BUK where Mrs Rufai was teaching Education Curriculum before joining the Jigawa State cabinet in 2007 and later the federal cabinet in 2011, revealed that although the former minister had returned to the institution, she was yet to commence work as a result of the ongoing industrial action.

Public Relations Officer of BUK, Mustapha Zaharaddeen, told this newspaper in a telephone interview on Wednesday that the former minister had joined her colleagues in the strike.

“How can she teach? She has joined the strike,” Mr. Zaharaddeen said. “She has no choice. How can anybody teach? Don’t forget, ASUU National President is from BUK.”

Mrs Rufai, the first female education minister from the northern part of Nigeria, was sacked from the federal cabinet alongside eight other ministers last September 11.

The other sacked ministers were Olugbenga Ashiru (Foreign Affairs), Hadiza Mailaifa (Environment), Shamsudeen Usman (National Planning), Ama Pepple (Land, Housing and Urban Development), Ita Ewa (Science and Technology).

Ministers of State for Defence, Power and Agriculture, Olusola Obada, Zainab Kuchi and Bukar Tijani, respectively were also relieved of their positions.

Abeg free d woman joor. If na u, u no go become loyal to ya new group? It is just like a football player who just moved to a new club. If he happens to play against his former club, he's gonna play with all his might and even hopes that he causes great havoc for them. Na so life be. What about Reuben Abati? Reuben was always against the government until he joined Jonathan's administration. Maybe he will sing another song after leaving. Jonathan too was once a lecturer and I believe he must have been loyal to his union against the FG. Today, what do have? He's at loggerheads with his former union. So let this woman be!

Unless she didn't join ASUU BUK chapter. Unless she just got her teaching appointment, and because students are not in school could not work.

If not, if she is now a member of ASUU I daresay she is a snitch, she lacks principles and moral standing. If ASUU even accept her they are bigger snitches. Dr Fagge ASUU president is from BUK he shouldn't ignore her.

So as soon as she was kicked out of govt, her sympathies changed ehn? If she had resigned it would have been diff story. Typical naija hypocrisy. Anyway, I pray and hope she makes good of this opportunity and act as a mediator between govt and ASUU. Since she has had the best of both worlds.

Y

This report is not true. I saw her leaving a lecture hall just few minutes ago. Despite the fact that students are not around, she lectured empty sits for like two hours. She even asked if there were questions but left when there was no reply.

Its no longer a news

Haba.........HABAtically...........let's go . That's unfair if she remains d minster,she cnt do such

What goes around ........

I will give gay pple a chance to marry but will jail them if they fail to produce a child-president:robert mugabe

This is a good submission but I'll only accept it if it has been proven that you have also been through this kind of situation and did exactly what you are preaching.
