From seminar halls and boardrooms where talks seem to have
collapsed, university teachers have moved their battle for
better education to the streets.
But, the police are stopping them from holding rallies and
marches to convince the public that their four-month old action
is right.
In Calabar, the police yesterday stopped a planned protest by
lecturers of the University of Calabar (UNICAL) and the Cross
River University.
But the lecturers addressed a rally on the UNICAL campus.
University of Ibadan (UI) lecturers had a town hall meeting to
sensitise the people to the strike.
In Ile-Ife, Osun State, Obafemi Awolowo University lecturers
marched on the streets, getting to the palace of the Ooni of Ife.
They urged him to pravail on the government to implement the
2009 agreement it signed with the Academic Staff Union of
Universities (ASUU), without which the strike would continue.
President Goodluck Jonathan said during last month’s
Presidential Chat that the government cannot fully implement
the agreement, especially the financial aspect, because doing
so would force a shutdown of other departments.
The Nigeria Labour Congrees (NLC), also yesterday, said
although it would not call out workers on a solidarity strike
with the lecturers, it would hold a meeting in Kaduna tomorrow
to take a stand on the way forward.
No fewer than 200 policemen, most of them heavily armed,
stopped ASUU members from carrying out an enlightenment
walk in Calabar.
The walk, which was organised by the UNICAL and Cross River
University of Technology (CRUTECH) branches of ASUU, was to
take off from the UNICAL gate at 7am and go through some
streets of Calabar, but the policemen ensured the teachers did
not leave the campus
The policemen said they were acting on “orders from above”.
ASUU Chairman Dr James Okpiliya said: “Our union is law
abiding. We wrote to the police and other security agencies on
our intention of walking the streets in pursuance of our cause
to put the records straight.
“Many groups have been walking the streets, giving people the
wrong impression about the situation. We just want to put the
records straight. The police are telling us that they have orders
from above not to let us walk the streets of Calabar. It is a
shame. You can all see the hypocrisy of government.
“They allowed youth and market women but they would not let
us academics, peace loving people. We would remain resolute.
No amount of provocation would stop us.”
Okpiliya went on: “We are not on strike because of our salaries.
We are fighting for our students and the terrible conditions of
our university. Most of our science students do not know the
difference between Bunsen burner and a stove. They don’t
even know the chemicals.
“The Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND) today has
become a main funding source of our universities, but this is
not to be so. TETFUND is only an intervention agency.
Government has bailed out banks and even Nollywood, but not
our universities.
“The strike would continue as long as the government remains
adamant. The President said after all, the strike in Ghana
lasted two years, so that means this one can continue even up
to five years.
“It is a shame for the President to say the strike is political. The
strike is not political. We are fighting for the good of our
people. If there is anything political about this it is by him
Jonathan. Let him implement the agreement and if the strike
continues then he can say it is political. Any government that
does not pay attention to the education sector is a dead
government.”
The Chairman of ASUU, CRUTECH branch, Dr Nsing Ogar, said
the Federal Government must honour the agreement.
A former president of ASUU and renowned author, Prof Festus
Iyayi, said a government that does not respect agreements is
calling for anarchy.
He said: “This is the final struggle. Even if it takes 10 years, the
students should know we are struggling on their behalf. A day
would come when the police would join us. A day would come
when we would not care whether the police would stop or not.
The state has failed.”
Another lecturer from UNICAL said: “If the strike is called off
today, everybody will be worse off for it. People are not
looking at the issues; they are just saying open the school, let
the children graduate. Let them go to school. They are not
bothered about the quality of education they are getting. In the
future, whatever we say the government will never take us
seriously.”
OAU chapter Chairman Prof. Peter Akinola, who led the protest,
urged the Federal Government to accede to ASUU’s demands
to enable the union suspend the industrial action.
Addressing residents at the palace of the Ooni of Ife, Oba
Okunade Sijuwade, Akinola said the education sector deserved
a better deal.
A member of the union, Prof. Gbolahan Babalola, said protest
was to show the concern of ASUU for undergraduates who had
stayed at home for months.
He urged traditional rulers and other stakeholders to resolve
the impasse.
The Sarun Oodua, Chief Adekola Adeyeye, who represented the
Ooni, praised ASUU for the peaceful conduct and show of
concern for students.
Adeyeye said that the Ooni understood that education was the
best legacy that any parent or government could bequeath to
any child.
He promised that the union’s message would be relayed to the
traditional ruler.
The OAU lecturers moved round major streets of Ile-Ife. Osun
State University teachers staged their rally at the newly built
Freedom Square near Old Garage in Osogbo, the Osun State
capital.
The Ile-Ife rally, which kicked off from the Oduduwa Hall of the
OAU caused a traffic gridlock for many hours in the ancient
town.
Osun State University branch Chairman Dr. Joseph Abiona
was worried over the misinformation being dished out to
Nigerians by the Federal Government as reason for the strike.
The NLC said it was in the process of mediating between the
Federal Government and ASUU.
Oyo State NLC Chairman Comrade Bashiru Olarewaju spoke at
a town hall meeting organised by ASUU to review the strike.
The meeting was held at the Trenchard Hall of the University of
Ibadan (UI).
At the Town Hall meeting were hundreds of people, including
civil society groups’ members, politicians, the clergy, traders
who were presented with slide of the NEEDS ASSESSMENT
REPORT of 2009 .
The NLC, according to Olarewaju , will meet tomorrow in
Kaduna to take a decisive action on the ASUU strike.
He said: “The government and some other people have been
trying to undermine the power, the influence and the ability of
each group that can salvage this nation from collapse . And let
me say this, that NLC has not been quiet. No, many people will
want the NLC to go on strike. No; we will not go on strike on
ASUU for now. But, anything can happen after Wednesday.
This is because we have more than 40 affiliates. If an affiliate
of NLC is in crisis and we now bring the entire workforce to
join the strike, the train of the nation will not move forward.
What we do in most cases is to mediate. ASUU is an affiliate of
the NLC. ASUU is our partner. We will work together ,” the NLC
chair said.
Prof. Remi Raji, Dean, Faculty of Arts, UI, said: “The way
forward is for the government to look at the NEEDS
ASSESSMENT report, which was presented to the government
in November, 2012.
“In the next few days, it will be one year and nothing has been
done of the 189 recommendations and we are saying that it is
very crucial for government to deal with it squarely for the
future of our children and our nation because a country that
does not develop its own capacity within, to develop its own
education standard to world class quality, cannot claim to be a
giant of Africa, cannot claim to have a clean bill of economic
health . This is the issue.”
UI chapter Chairman Dr. Olusegun Ajiboye said the appeal by
President Jonathan to be patriotic is not needed but action and
implementation of the agreement reached with the union.
He said it was sad that a President who claimed that
corruption is not Nigeria’s problem can watch a Minister buy
bullet proof vehicles for N255million, yet claiming there is no
money to fund education.
He berated the President for speaking out publicly on the
ongoing strike close to four months after it began, maintaining
that he has not been patriotic and sensitive enough to the
needs of the majority of Nigerians.
He said: “Will it have been possible for Mr. President to be
quiet if his children are in one of our public institutions and be
at home for four months? “How many years of appeal will
make Mr. President implement a four year old agreement? The
truth is we are tired of appeal. We need action. “
The Chairman of ASUU, Niger Delta University (NDU),
Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa State, Dr. Beke Sese, said the strike
is to save the universities from collapse.
He maintained that the strike had no political undertone and
not targeted at Jonathan or his administration.
Sese told reporters in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital,
that the industrial action was to protest the deplorable
condition of public universities.
“Imputing political motive to the strike is a calculated attempt
by some persons to deploy propaganda gimmicks to the cause
of the university teachers, in order to divert attention from the
real issues that informed the strike,” Sese said, adding:
“When the current Chairman of the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Attahiru Jega, was ASUU
president, the members did not compromise, when there was
similar strike, during the regime of the late Gen. Sani Abacha.
“This is the first time that ASUU members have embarked on a
protracted strike, which centres on funding of the universities
and improvement of the infrastructure. The funds so far
released by the Federal Government are grossly inadequate.
The 2009 agreement must be fully implemented.”
