I hope something good comes out of this meeting. Both govt and ASUU should make reasonable concessions and allow for resolutions that would improve teaching and learning conditions in our Unis. ASUU must not be too stubborn with its skyrocketted demands as this may further delay govt action; Jonathan on the other hand should stop pointing fingers at the opposition - that's lame! If Oduah could spend hundreds of millions to buy 2 cars, students too deserve modern facilities to be trained with. It's sad that after needlessly wasting students' study years, organizations and even government would still place age limit for employment. I think that's callous! Jona, you're the leader, please end this strike! 15 Likes |

These ASUU leaders don't have the thought of their students in their minds, cause if they do they would called off this strike action a long time. Well, I wish them luck and I know the president will help the situation so that they can call it off ASAP. |

Mynd_44: That boldness and courage has turned to stupidity and inhumanity, TF students have been at for 4 months, for what? They say our Universities are producing "half-baked" graduates. Except for science, I don't see how collecting huge sums from government will produce a better graduate. I'm not a science student but I heard they teach students Fortran 1995 in OAU, mere hearing '1995', this is 2013 (14 sef), when there is fortran 03, 08. Part of the Universities problem comes from lazy lecturers. Science/tech related companies in Nigeria today have to send their to-be employees abroad to train! them before they start work. What do we now say about graduates from the Faculty of Social sciences, Art, Environmental design, that don't meet our expectations of a graduate? I'm not trying to defend the government, but the point I'm trying to get at is that the way Nigerian Universities are managed should be changed. Just like Jamb that produces syllabus every 5 or so years, there should be a body that ensures that courses are up-to-date esp in science. And the practice of always employing students that graduate with first class has to be scrutinized. I've seen students on 2nd class (upper division) who are generally better than the ones on 1st class. All what some of these 1st class students do is cram, cram their way to pass. How is someone that crams expected to be able to teach effectively? I remember my SSC (statistics) lecturer in 200 level, that guy didn't know poo, all he did was bring a note (that he was probably taught with) write questions from the note, and solved from the note - he couldn't solve the advanced questions without looking at the note. On some occasions when the "igi-iwes" at the front brought difficult questions, he either gives it as assignment or starts asking anyone to come try it out, until the class ends. MY POINT NOT EVERYONE CAN TEACH. As intelligent as Einstein was, he might suck at teaching. And Lecturers being treated as small gods, in the sense that no matter what they do, it is virtually impossible to report them. I'm happy OAU seems to be doing a little about this now. In school, I have a friend that performs better than me in virtually all the courses we do together. In one particular course (very simple course) I had an 'A' or 'B' and the guy had a 'F'. After disturbing the lecturer for a long time, he found out that the man did not even touch he's script and he just gave 'F', after much delay again the man gave him an 'E' and asked him to leave. Now imagine someone trying maintain his 1st class, that 'E' is disastrous. The lecturer did not change it and the guy couldn't do anything, if he tries to report him (which afterall will end up like the case of our politicians), every other course that the lecturer teaches him in the coming years, he will fail them (and you know why) . In science its even worse, if you go to a lecturer to challenge your result, you will be replied with a threat, the threat is something like this "if you discover that that's your real score, I will give you an 'F'". 27 Likes |

Olugbenger: If you notice that in this post I'm only addressing the few real problems, I'm a student and I don't like being at home for 4months when ASUU could have sued FG. Me mentioning the finance part in the post was minimal, any true student and lecturer would agree with most of my points, I think I might have been too harsh on ASUU before but the truth be told most of our lecturers are not up-to-date and what I'm trying to say is that they have to start from themselves for people like me to really take them serious. I'm not 'any' NANS president, I don't fancy politics, be it student union, FG or whatever sort 12 Likes |
