Abeg let the strike continue jare

Who wants to die of work?

Whatever the FG says, or ASUU says....fee increases are inevitable.

The 2009 agreement put funding needed at N3trillion over 2years.The new 2013 agreement puts funding at N1 trillion over 5 years.

That tells me that there isn't enough money...and as a result fees have to go up.

Yes,I hate to say this,but Nigeria doesn't have enough cash. We probably need at least N5 trillion to fund all sectors of education adequately. Probably more...so that we don;t have to pay high fees. And our budget is N9 trillion.

So,either we pay high fees,or higher taxes,or keepon with free education,at the cost of quality.....while the rich port to private and foreign schools to get better quality degrees....and the poor we are supposed to be helping get bad degrees.

Only an idiot will come out to say this. You must be one of those who doesn't value education but rather is an economic almajiri dependent on the government 5k per month for the most vulnerable.

Our lecturers are highly ineffective so asking for more money is a waste!! They are part of the education rot in Nigeria!!

We all know that these allegations are true. What do you expect when you have an imposter for a president.

Use 'My lecturers are highly ineffective" cos mine were very impactful and effective and they deserve way better than what they have currently.

So, ASUU now want the FG to use all Nigeria money to fund education. What a dumb ASUU: as if ASUU no go school?

But people like Baru and Buhari can pocket billions of dollars in petrol Subsidy scam.

I rather school in abroad with this said amount of school fees than schooling in Nigeria with this same amount.

The Federal Government negotiating team has appealed to the striking Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to return to the negotiating table, while denying that it has proposed the imposition of N350,000 and N500,000 as tuition fees to be paid per annum by undergraduates.

Speaking with newsmen in Lagos, weekend, Chairman of the team, Dr. Wale Babalakin, dismissed the figures as not only incorrect and contradictory, but also a figment of the imagination of ASUU officials peddling them around the country.

He said: “We do not know from where ASUU got the figures that it has been peddling around the country. Aside from the fact that our committee has no power to impose fees on students, we are at a loss regarding the source of the said figures.”

Babalakin disclosed that while the committee regarded dialogue with ASUU as the most effective way of resolving contentious issues bordering on the industrial dispute, it currently had little choice but to respond to “allegations” and “the inaccurate narratives” that had been consistently provided by ASUU’s President and some zonal heads in a bid to misinform and mislead members of the public on the true situation regarding university education in Nigeria.

He also accused ASUU officials of inundating the public with suggestions that he, as chairman of the Federal Government Renegotiating Committee, was pursuing a personal agenda.

Babalakin said: “All I have expressed are the collective views of the Federal Government Negotiating Team.

“Going by the figures provided by ASUU, Nigeria requires over N2 trillion per annum to fund university education.

“This figure exceeds the total amount available for all capital projects in Nigeria, including health, infrastructure, security and others.

“No doubt, if the money were available for university education as ASUU has insisted it is, the government will have no difficulty in spending it on university education.

“However, as it is, government cannot ignore all other areas of expendi-ture that require funding.”

That union in recent years has caused more harm than good to the academic world due to its unending greed. Gone are the good old day ASUU strike meant anything meaningful.
