Demdem:

The real reason why we all should support ASUU now and make sure the last time they will ever go on strike will be 2013
keep supporting them! Are the lectuerer keeping their own agreement with the students. Asking for cash to pass them, sextually harassing the ladies, staying away from lectures. They want their retirement age extented yet they cant boost of one feasible research. Shioor.

Its just ur bid to attack GEJ's administration, i know u for it.

Waspy: If its a mere MoU as you claimed, then whats FG waiting for? It shld come out to tell its MoU and then sue ASUU for neglect of Duty, blackmail or something

u expect the FG to put up a signboard screaming ''WE DONT HONOUR AGREEMENTS''? ASUU and FG cant enter into a valid contract abt dis issue cos they cant meet all d essentials of a valid contract...btw...i dnt beleive d post, it sounds dubious.

ASUU indeed has been patient all these years.
GOVT MUST IMPLEMENT ALL.

dr_joshua2000: 50 percent of education budget 2 education?, and all the plenty allowance?, excess workload allowace?, 200,000K per thesis to professor, transfer of Univeristy lands to universities?, fed government funding state Universities. And still Universities having autonomy? Paying lecturers to supervise projects and exams? Then what is their work na. Heartless agreement. This will cause crises by other workers in other fields. Don't mind being a lecturer ones the agreement is implemented though.

Heartless agreement you call it.

Didn't those who represented the FG in the negotiations read the agreement? abi, catarrh dey for their eyes ni?

HNosegbe: The part of the agreement I don't understand is one that talks about FG funding of state universities. That doesn't make sense to me - why can't states fund their own universities appropriately, or design creative financing options?

Oh well, the government signed an agreement. Let them abide by it.
HNosegbe, there is no confusion in the agreement. It was even the FG team that suggested the inclusion of the state universities to bring about uniformity. But, it has turned out to be a political gimmick aimed at 2011 votes. And for those saying ASUU is calous and insensitive, let them advise the FG to go to National Industrial Court, if they think they have a case against ASUU. Has the govt learnt the way to court only in matters concerning the newPDP?

Most,if nt all,of their agitations can not improve the standard of education in Nigeria.And they are in a way selfish wit their demands.They need to pressurize govt to provide jobs for millions of their students dat have graduated for years without jobs.This large sum of money can be channeled into creation of employments for the teeming jobless youths.
We are all Nigerians and everyone is supposed to be treated equally.Millions of Nigerians are unemployed and some are agitating for self-centred demands.Pls,it is high time fed. Govt addressed this unemployment issue dat has become cankerworm wch has eaten deeply into the fabric of the country economic growth.

Promhize: God punish this idiots. I was almost supporting them but on a second thought, this guys are greedy old men, destroying students lives with no sense of regret.

Why can't they just sue the FG since it was an agreement, wait let me guess, they don't want to spend their money, but they can waste students lives without twitching an eye.

We always blame FG, but these lecturers are as worse as the politicians themselves, I can bet that over 40% (esp Professors, Dr) are not in Nigeria as we are speaking, we complain that our politicians children aren't schooling in Nigeria but these greedy men are not different, even the son of Ondo state's deputy governor schools at OAU - tell me why he would want to send any of his children to FG universities later.

I just don't understand, this idiots are fighting for their pockets - for bigger offices, ac fitted - not students. I school in OAU and I'm not complaining, in-fact, no student is complaining. OAU increased Acceptance fee from 2000naira to 20,000naira, a whooping 1000% increase, when we students protested they advised us to stop and called us all sorts.

No lecturer supported students. For Pre-degree programme, the fee is over 150thousand naira, to write post utme, you'd have to pay over 3000naira, to check you'd have to pay over 3000naira, pls where do you think all these money is going to. Its not like we are given free food or learning materials.

This lecturers sit in AC tight offices, travel anyhow even during school semesters all in the name of research, the same lecturers fighting for students will come back from trips in the middle of semesters and give students only course outline and ask us to go learn ourselves.

Same lecturers demanded more than once that their retirement age be extended when millions of graduates are out of work. They want allowance because they are teaching more than 1 course, these same men and women of no reputable standard went to school on scholarship, with free food, books, and so on.

Damn ASUU and their sympathisers. They sit in AC tight offices with numerous gadgets when ordinary ceiling fans in students room aren't working.
They collect hundreds of millions in different fees but must new classrooms in OAU are built by Private companies and individuals such as first bank, I bet the rest are from FG funds.

I WILL NOT STOP UNTIL EVERYONE KNOWS THAT EVEN THOUGH FG IS CORRUPT, THESE LECTURERS ARE NOT ANY BETTER.

Dear Nigerian students so eager to go back to school have you asked yourself
- what you are really going back to?
- The education you are currently getting does it equip you to compete equally with your counterparts around the world?
- why don't you all rise up and fight for what is rightfully yours?
- Is ASUU really the enemy here?
- Did ASUU have to embark on this strike for everyone including you to know that the education system is decaying and needs reforms?
- With advanced technology why are you all still crying about handouts what happened to projectors and the lecturers either sending you slides or uploading them in a central system where you can access?
- How many practical projects have you carried out?

If the strike will yield atleast 70percent of the agreement in term of implicationan then it is an unfortunate pain we should bear.

I want a situation where I can undertake my Msc in a Nigerian institution and feel at home with quality education instead of taking close to 5 million abroad to learn under hostile environment. Money I would have used to invest and help sustain the economy.

I want a situation where my sibling can consider schooling in Nigeria at a first choice

A situation where 4yrs is 4yrs for BSc and 2yrs is 2yrs for Msc

If this is the pain we must go through to enjoy the above then I am willing to suffer it now and enjoy later.

After spending close to 100 hours fielding questions on the ASUU strike last week on this same Nairaland, I had decided to just face my work and go through the various threads on the strike in stealth mode to pa ironu re. However, your post was so strongly-worded and ignorant that I had to decloak immediately to speak to it.

My dear young man, I lecture in that same OAU you are mouthing about. No be your fault. I wish you had attended some other universities in Nigeria; then perhaps you would have valued what you have here more. Elede o meye.

Your angry rant is fueled primarily by simple ignorance of the fact that by paying less than N100,000 for an education worth at least N1 million, students are a primary cause of the reason why the FG spends so much on tertiary education. Yes, the fight we are taking to FG to raise money may yet come back to haunt you guys. Have you ever paused your rant to ask yourself why ASUU doesn't just call off and let the government jerk up school fees? Believe me, if it were in my power, I would have made us do this long ago. Then you would stop accusing us of being selfish old men because you would be too busy working your guts out to raise the money for your education. The truth of the matter must be said: nobody in Nigeria wants to pay for anything. That is why a student like you is being given education that others mortgage their futures to get in the US, and you can still be ranting.

Did you see where someone obviously better than you suggested that a PG education somewhere abroad costs N5 million? Yet, you are mouthing off that OAU had the guts to collect N20,000 from you. You want ASUU to fight so you wont pay even that.

Since you say you are in OAU, I challenge you to say the university has NOT improved over the last 10 years. Do you even have any idea why that is so

I can understand now why most ASUU members view students with contempt; they lack the capacity for simply comprehension, preferring to raise hell.

This country is probably doomed, and I'm not thinking about GEJ or ASUU when I say that; I am looking at *you*.

I've been vindicated.
How can you hold a gun to FG's head and ask them to sign an agreement and they won't? When it's obvious they want to do all they can to keep students in school. How selfish of those lecturers

Fallacy. I take my work extremely seriously. I keep my teaching methods and courseware at par (or close) to the best universities in the world. And I do *not* work in Department of Chemistry. I have always maintained that we have "bad egg" lecturers. I almost always also state that we also have some outstanding lecturers. The fact of the matter is, we cannot fire the bad lecturers until we know for a fact that we have the wherewithal to hire anything better in their place. Tell me, how many first class students do you know who chose to lecture? Can you tell me why? Does it not go back to this same funding issue?

All ASUU wants is totally unrealistic for a developing nation like Nigeria. They want us to believe that with these funds unilag and the rest will start competing with harvard abi?

You know, it would be good for people to have any idea of what they are talking about before they give opinions. Do you know what a developing country that needs to bootstrap itself needs to do? If you do, please tell me. I am all ears.
