This is very wrong.

You don't ruin the goal and aim of ASUU organization of getting settled by Federal government all because of your selfish interest or so.

This decision of theirs might be a politically engineered one.

Whatever FG does only affects federal schs. and it cannot benefit a state school. It is demonic to waste people's time for the sake of solidarity. It is like academic kidnapping in which the kidnapped can't pay the ransom.

Exactly what I came here to write. I still do not understand what business state ASUU have with this present strike.

Well let me educate u a bit. The main reason for the strike is revitalization of universities and payment of earned allowances. FG brought in IPPIS as a distraction. Now...
1. On revitalization, my friend works in Kaduna State University and the last time an agreement was reached on Eared Allowance, the FG urged the state govts to try and implement it as well. You may wish to know that my friend has been earning that cos the state govt implemented it.

2. On proliferation of state universities, it badly affects the state unis cos like Kaduna University, abt 90% of the structures are built by FG either through CBN, TETFUND, NEEDS ASSESSMENT etc. The govt does virtually nothing but payment of salaries. Yet, you still see them building more. I think Kano already has 2 state unis and is planning on building another. Kogi can't pay salaries but it wants to add another uni. The unis will soon turn to secondary schools and it's likely gonna emanate from the state unis, rubbing off on the Federal unis. Thus, using the govt forum, FG can discourage that.

3. Revitalization fund are not just for the FG unis. I stated the example of KASU. After the last strike, govt released money and KASU got about 200 million. I think Plateau state uni got about 130million or thereabouts. So if ur branch no join strike and ASUU suspends it, maybe una allocation fit get K leg since the FG will involve them in the sharing formula.

4. For the general funding of unis, don't forget state govts have been working hard to see that some allocation to certain sectors are cut while certain taxes are implemented so that the FG will have more money to send as monthly allocations to the states. Now it means that if FG will have money for universities, certainly, State govs, who are part of the Federal Executive Council, are very key stakeholders in the decision process.

Last last though, it's the kind of shambolic federal system we are practicing that allows this. This feeding bottle federalism that everyone heads to the center for everything is wack. I men look at us elections. Counties being responsible for election process? I can't imagine local govt officials handling elections. See how messed up state handled LG elections are. Nigeria na zoo

In a proper federal structure, a state university should never be allowed to go on strike over a matter that affects only federal university. ASUU is on strike over an IPPIS payment platform that affects only federal university lecturers. State universities have no business with IPPIS so what’s the justification for them to be on strike?

mechanics:
I agree with you, but mind you, it's not only the payment platform they are fighting for, but for better funding of our universities.

What is business of FG with state universities?
Beside, no sector is properly funded . Military and politicians get bulk of allocation.

Who ever told you that ASUU is fighting for the warfare of students must be high on weed, forget this people, they are fighting for their selfish interest not for me, not for you, not for the students but their pocket, though support the strike but it's be coming boring. But since the goverment is mad, ASUU is mad, let everybody and institution get ready to be mad in this country. Nobody has monopoly for madness. De madness don the start small small and soon other institution will also join the madness.

Are state Universities part of the strike, I thought it was only federal schools

WILL YOU SHUT UP THERE!!!

HOW DOES OGUN STATE UNI LOOK LIKE?

Lazy youth. The holiday is over, go and prepare for exams. Four years course is now taking 8 years, yet you want the strike to continue. Do you want to have all your children while in school or for how long shall you keep using Postinor-2?
