The Ultimatum from the FG to ASSU to call off
their 5 months old industrial action or face been
sacked, reminds me of my days in the dormitory
as a boarding student. A student will threaten to
brake the head of a fellow students if he dares
crosses his path, the order student will
challenge him to a fight if he dares talk to him
any how, knowing full well how grave the
consequences of their actions would be. The
exchange of words will continue till a mediator
will come in, "guy its ok, just leave him", the
other will withdraw at the excuse that " the don
beg for you".
But if the rumbling continues without anybody
coming in-between them, in other to save a face,
not to be termed barking dogs by fellow
students, one will hit the other which will create
a scene for the onlookers.
Sometimes the hall will be divided in two along
the line of class A or B, most of the times when
its divided in two rather than mediate, we would
add petrol to the already fairy furnace, by
shifting the lockers and beds there by creating
an arena for the fight, one side will be urging
his man to fight harder, the other group will
also charge their men to hit harder, some times
when your man is loosing you would add hand
and so the others man will join and it will end
up group fight, leaving some with broken head
some with severe cut in different parts of the
body.
The next morning, there would be an emagency
assembly before the morning assembly, the
massage will be communicated to us on the date
to face the disciplinary panel, after the panel,
many will be suspended, many will be expelled,
many will clean the toilet for a week or month
and many others will just receive strokes of
cane, and life will continue. We would one day
all sit together, talk, joke and laugh, reminisce
over our past deeds miss those who were
suspended or expelled, we all did these because
we were kids.
But I ask is FG a kid, is ASSU a kid, I assume
they are,
Therefore I am appealing to Nigerians of repute
not to form cliques and support either group,
but to mediate so the gladiators will sheath their
sword on the ground that "dey don beg for you,
if not" because if everyone decides to clear the
arena for the fight between ASUU and FG to
rage on, many will not only go home with
broken heads or expelled, but the entire school
might be close,
The threats of sack might go on waiting for a
mediator, but if none is forth coming, to save a
face, the FG may carry out the threat and this
will be disastrous for our dear beloved nation.
Jonathan might not want to be termed a "sacking
Fashola" but certainly would not want to be
called a barking dog.
"ASSU we dey beg for FG" do not brake
anybody's head, Please no body is sacking you,
just call off the strike.
