The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has noted that civil servants who send their children to Nigeria’s private universities are corrupt.

ASUU chairman, University of Ibadan chapter, Dr Deji Omole, who spoke in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Sunday pointed out that civil servant with children in private universities in Nigeria must be stealing.


The ASUU chairman spoke when he received a delegation of labour movement led by the Chairman NLC Oyo State, Waheed Olojede who paid a solidarity visit to ASUU in UI on the ongoing strike.



He said, “It is unfortunate that we have to go on strike again, for as long as we continue have bandits in government, we shall continue to struggle. It is sad that in Nigeria that we pay lip service to public education.

“They do not want us to have functional education so that they can continue to exploit us. Our presidents will first visit international communities for endorsement after their election and come back. The only problem they have is ASUU.

“There are about 200 applicants for private universities that they want to give license.


“They had wanted to sell public universities to themselves but ASUU resisted. How many of us can legitimately send our children to private universities?

“Our parents have served them, we are serving them now and they are already planning so that our children will serve them.

“The ruling class are united against the masses. All these ethnic jingoists are being sponsored by those who have lost out of the equation.

“Where is the place of the masses in the restructuring? Our oppressors are united. God loves the poor, he created them more than the rich, and it is left to the poor to use their size to chase away oppressors.”

Can you imagine a Nigerian lecturer saying something so foolish. He thinks everyone would be like him, spending money on booze and slay queens rather than investing in his children.

If you have parents who are both level 17 teachers of either Lagos or most importantly Ogun state you should be able to conveniently send one of your kids to a private university at a time(of course that is if you spaced your kids birth by a period of 4yrs at least)

I had colleagues back in school whose parents were civil servants also who took loans to send their kids to private universities and then refinanced it with their salaries. What about those whose parents financed their education with gratuity from State or Federal government. This loose tongue of a lecturer just casted aspersions on them all.

This so called ''Dr'' can't tell me he receives nothing less than 400,000 a month, yet he claims his mate sending their kids to a Crawford university of less than 400,000 per annum must be stealing. Oga u better plan your life.

Not so true. Not all civil servants solely rely on the income they derive from Federal Government.
Do you know that apart from FGN Stipends they may also have other source of income by engaging in trade. Dear ASUU, don't be so myopic on this issue. Some civil servants may even have unearned source of income.

The fact that the situation in Nigeria is bad and most people feed from hand to mouth due to depression do not mean we don't have people finding it easy in this country.

Lool. Bro what's up.Sorry I've not really been active for some time.

This is the most senseless statement from ASSUU so far.

I also read an article this week where Adame (the education minister) lamented that Covenant University is now ranking better than Federal schools on Webometrics, and I wonder if he is just the minister of education for public institutions only.

We really need to change our mentality in this country because however we view it, private institutions are a plus to the educational sectors and not a minus. And any impact they make as a result of growing to match world standard will be credited to Nigerian educational sector. Hence, government at all levels must rise up and support private higher institutions just like they do for their federal and state counterparts.

So true

ASSU no get sense sha

make una just call off ahbeg...all ds one na story

Pls don't insult my parents, so as I graduated from a private university here in London my parents are corrupt? Pls be careful

ASUU, it will never be well with you, you made me waste a whole year due to ur stupid strikes. My kids are going private uni in the future. if you don't like ut, go hug transformer

ASUU but why

That is what I call retrogressive mindset. It saddens them that the private institutions are giving the public ones a run for their money, hence revealing how poorly supposed experts like himself have been managing the government owned institutions. Therefore, they will prefer that public officials that have the capacity to train their children in s school like Covenant, send them abroad instead, so they will continue with the status-quo. It follows this reasoning pattern: "if you can't compete beat them; no need to improve upon yourself to match their standard, just drag them down"!

Super story

You just wake up early in the morning to spew rubbish. Are you the one paying him 400, 000? You, my friend are a very ignorant fellow with zero reasoning.

I thought ASUU should know better about fallacy of hasty generalisation. Citizens are increasingly frustrated with the non-dynamic nature of our curriculum and incessant disruption of academic activities of public universities. The universities of today cannot cope with the number of persons seeking tertiary education. Which do they prefer? Making undergraduates struggle for lecture spaces or increasing the options available.

Everything about Nigeria is just wrong. Even the people governing it. It's well sha.

Check my signature for your customised ATM card flash drive id card and full capacity powerbank.

teachers do collect loan to send their kids to private uni.... other civil servants do same.....

He could have kept quiet than this disgraceful statement. A country with outrageous number of professors cannot boast of any meaningful invention. I weep for Nigeria.

After reading some comments here and several other comments in different fora, I realised we have a serious problem

1. The only person that speaks for ASUU are national officials, especially the National President. Any other person talking is expressing his personal opinion.

2. There is so much ignorance in this country.
And the most annoying thing is people make conclusive statements without any facts. Imagine somebody here saying the Dr earns nothing less than 400k per month. Well let that fellow know that you can have a PhD and still earn below 150k (which is an improved pay package as a result of several strikes someone called useless). Pay is dependent on rank not academic qualification. Yes academic qualification is a major factor in rank determination, depending on mode of entry into the system and some discipline, a PhD holder can earn less than 150k and a non PhD holder can earn way above 150k.

3. Before you go calling ASUU strikes useless, please note that ALL ETF projects you see on our university campuses are results of ASUU struggles. When was the last time you saw any new project in any university that is not an ETF project? From lecture halls to offices, labs to ICT centres, libraries to sports facilities and school clinics. Imagine if ASUU folded her hands and kept mute, public universities would have long gone extinct and let's see how many people can send their children to private universities...on how much that workers are being paid in this sorry country? Which brings me to the issue of civil servants sending their children to private universities.

4. Besides high ranking civil servants, majority of civil servants earn less than 150k per month. And we are talking about the Federal level. State civil servants earn less. But let's even assume a civil servant earns 300k per month. He has to feed, transport, pay for medical care, fuel his car(s), take care of family members every now and then ( remember we are in africa) fuel his generator and save some to either pay his annual rent, or save towards building his house or payoff loans he took to build his house or buy a car. Which money will he use in sending his children to private universities? Remember if he has just a child in the universities, most likely others are in the secondary school where fees are already sky rocketing. I can confidently say a civil servant who sends his children to private universities must be making money besides his salary, and given the level of corruption in this country, the probability that he is stealing that money is high.
