My Thoughts On The Recently Signed Agreement Between Fg & ASUU by Nobody: 9:35pm On Feb 07, 2019
The root cause of the industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities has been the consistent and unfailing failure of the Federal Government to implement the 2009 agreement. According to the vanguard Newspaper of November 18, 2018, ASUU vowed that they will not return to the classrooms unless the FG accedes to its demands as highlighted in the 2009 agreement.

Now, according to TVC News, ASUU has reached an agreement, and signed documents, raising hope of an end to the three months old strike.

I don't know how many ASUU members will get to see this post, but I want to state categorically that IT APPEARS ASUU HAS NOT YET LEARNT ITS LESSONS!!!

I was in SS2 when the 2009 agreement was signed. I wrote my WASSCE in 2010. I have concluded my BSC and I'm in the final lap of my MSC, and yet, ASUU has for the umpteenth time signed a MOA with the FG with respect to the 2009 agreement. An agreement that was reached when I was in SS2 is yet to be fully implemented while I'm rounding up my MSC, and ASUU, a body of intellectuals, is still signing agreements with a government that is notorious for not keeping to their side of the bargain? This is as ridiculous as anything.

I had hoped that this strike will be a comprehensive strike that will bring an end to the FG's nauseating attitude of not keeping to agreements but I'm disappointed.

ASUU has failed to get it right, and I bet you, that the agreement that has been signed today will be the reason for the next industrial action in 10 months' time.

THAT STRIKE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED!!!

We do not know the next Sheriff that will run the affairs of this Nation. Our politicians are good at throwing blames. The new government that will come (if the current government loses at the polls) may resort to blaming the previous government for signing an agreement that it was not capable of keeping. They MAY blame the "past" government for leaving an empty treasury, and then, as is the custom, the strike will begin all over again.

I can bet a thousand ripe yams that a student currently in his first year will begin his PHD and ASUU will still be battling with the FG over the 2009 agreement.

I feel you bro..... it's better to die the die once...than keep putting yourself on a life support machine, knowing you'll still die soon....
ASUU will still strike again next year , on the basis of FG refusal to still sign the same agreement....why should we resume knowing , we could still face this problem again....it would have been better to fight till the end..what exactly is the essence of the prolonged strike....if they'll just chicken out like they've always done....
