The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU,
has been given one week ultimatum to call off the
ongoing strike.
The directive was given today, in Abuja by the
acting Minister of Education, Mr. Nyesom Wike while
speaking with journalists.
The union has been on strike since July 1 over the
non Implementation of a 2009 agreement with the
federal government[img].[/img][img][/img][img][/img]
According to reports, the lecturers at their NEC
meeting last week in Kano, demanded that
government should pay the four-month salary
arrears being owed varsity lecturers while there
should be immediate implementation of the N1.2tn
offerred by the goverment to public varsities,
starting with the release of N100bn this year, before
the strike can be called off.
A demand the acting Minister Wike had described
as ,”outrageous.”
Meantime, ASUU had said it would meet with
President Jonathan on the decisions reached at its
NEC meeting before any announcement will be
made concerning the 5months old strike.

Lets just wait and see what will happen after 1week. This ASUU vs Fg drama is getting interesting

What is outrageous in the ASUU asking Federal Government to pay salary arrears? By the way what gonna happen if at the end that 1 week ASUU fail to call of the strike?... Instead of settling ASUU for students to resume school they are busy giving useless ultimatum.

living soul,i bet u r one of them.u of these ASUU ppl who wantz to reap wr u did nt sow.God is watching
