Abisola PPCP: Buhari Sacks 2,000 University
Workers -
Punch
The Senior Staff Association of the Nigerian
Universities has called for an indefinite strike on
December 24, 2015 to protest a recent decision
of
the Federal Government to sack 2,000 university
workers across the country by January, 2016.
The National President of SSANU, Mr. Samson
Ugwoke, said during a press briefing in Abuja on
Friday that the National Salaries, Income and
Wages Commission, and the National Universities
Commission had written letters of termination to
2,000 members of staff of the universities.
Ugwoke said that the senior staff union of the
universities had already dispatched letters to the
Ministry of Education, the NUC and the National
Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission to
withdraw the letters of termination issued to
varsity
workers of the University of Ilorin, Federal
University of Technology, Akure, Usman Dan
Fodio
University, Sokoto and others.
He said that SSANU also urged the Education
Ministry and the other agencies to ensure
immediate withdrawal of similar letters to vice
chancellors to terminate the appointment of
personnel of university staff primary schools.
He said the letter dated December 17, 2015 also
copied President Muhammadu Buhari, the
President of Senate, Bukola Saraki, the Speaker
of
the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu
Dogara,
the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris
Ngige and others.
Ugwoke added that the 2,000 workers affected in
the planned retrenchment exercise were drawn
from 31 universities and were employed by the
councils of the various institutions to make the
requisite contribution to educational development
in the institutions and the society over the years.
The SSANU leader noted that the directive to
sack
the workers who are expected to leave service in
January 2016 was contained in a circular said to
have been written and signed by a Deputy
Director
in the Ministry of Education, Mr. E.O Fayemi, on
behalf of the minister.
He stated further that the circular dated April 21,
2015, was attached with a memorandum and
report from the National Salaries, Income and
Wages Commission dated March 2014 and
February 2014 respectively.
According to him, the commission responded to
the circular by directing the removal of personnel
of staff schools and other institutions affiliated
to
the universities from the payroll.
He said, “The implementation of this directive
would be a gross violation and breach of the
SSANU/FGN 2009 Agreement, which explicitly
stated that the University shall bear full capital
and
recurrent cost of University Staff primary
schools.
“It is further shocking to note that till date, the
Federal Ministry of Defence still funds the capital
and recurrent costs of over 100 Army Children
Schools, Command Children Schools, Navy
Primary
Schools and Air Force Schools; while the
Ministry
of Police Affairs still funds its Police Children
Schools, all from the Federal Treasury.
“We are surprised that an agency of government,
the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages
Commission, could continue with this callous,
wicked, insensitive and ill-intentioned agenda,
despite our calls, letters, press releases and
publications on the issue.
“With the advent of the administration of
President
Muhammadu Buhari, we had written series of
public and confidential letters on same with no
positive response.”
He said that 90 per cent of the pupils of the
university staff schools were children of the staff
of
the institutions stressing that the schools were
established alongside other academic
components
of the universities in some cases.
The unionist said SSANU had to give the
December
24, 2015 deadline to the Federal Government as
part of the efforts to prevent the over 2000
workers
of the universities from being sacked.
Several efforts by Saturday PUNCH to get the
response of ASUU National President, Dr. Nasir
Fagge, was resisted because he said, “I am out
of
the country and you don’t expect me to answer
you from abroad.”
Also when contacted, the Special Assistant
(Media)
to the Minister of State for Education, Anthony
Akuneme, directed our correspondent to the
office
of the Education Minister, Adamu Adamu.
But several calls and SMS to the Assistant
Director
of Press in the Education Ministry, Abdul Onu,
were
not replied.

The words friendship and friends are thrown around rather loosely nowadays. Social networks, like FaceBook, would have us believe that an acquaintance or a contact equals a friendship. Consequently, new generations are growing up with this terminology and to them the meaning of the word “friendship” may be truly lost. Friendship and love – these words are sacred. My son was watching an episode from his Greek Mythology cartoon DVD and it happened to be the story of Damon and Pythias. Sitting at my desk I could hear it, and it brought a tear to my eye. This story, told by Aristoxenus, Cicero and others, has been a symbol for trust and loyalty in true friendship. Read it and see just how much we have downsized and degraded the meaning of that term… Damon and Pythias had been the best of friends since childhood. Each trusted the other like a brother, and each knew in his heart there was nothing he would not do for his friend. Eventually the time came for them to prove the depth of their devotion. It happened this way. Dionysius, the ruler of Syracuse, grew annoyed when he heard about the kind of speeches Pythias was giving. The young scholar was telling that no man should have unlimited power over another, and that absolute tyrants were unjust kings. In a fit of rage, Dionysius summoned Pythias and his friend. ” Who do you think you are, spreading unrest among the people? ” he demanded. ” I spread only the truth, ” Pythias answered.. ” There can be nothing wrong with that.” “And does your truth hold that kings have too much power and that their laws are not good for their subjects? ” ” If the king has seized power without permission of the people, then that is what I say.” ” This kind of talk is treason, ” Dionysius shouted. ” You are conspiring to overthrow me. Retract what you’ve said or face the consequences.” ” I will retract nothing, ” Pythias answered. ” Then you will die. Do you have any last requests? ” Yes, Let me go home long enough to say goodbye to my wife and children and to put household in order.” ” I see you not only think I am unjust, you think I’m stupid as well, ” Dionysius laughed scornfully. ” If I let you leave Syracuse, I have no doubt I will never see you again.” ” I will give you a pledge,” Pythias said ” What kind of pledge could you possibly give to make me think you will ever return? ” Dionysius demanded. At that instant Damon, who had stood quietly besides his friend, stepped forward.. ” I will be his pledge, ” he said. ” Keep me here in Syracuse, as your prisoner, until Pythias returns. Our friendship is well known to you.You can be sure Pythias will return so long as you hold me.” Dionysius studied the two friends silently, ” Very well, ” he said at last. ” ” But if you are willing to take the place of your friend, you must be willing to accept his sentence if he breaks his promise. If Pythias does not return to Syracuse, you will have to die in his place. ” He will keep his word, ” Damon replied. ” I have no doubt of that.” Pythias was allowed to go free for a time, and Damon was thrown into prison. After several days, when Pythias failed to reappear, Dionysius’s curiosity got the better of him, and he went to the prison to see if Damon was yet sorry he had made such a bargain. ” Your time is almost up, ” the ruler of Syracuse sneered. ” It will be useless to beg for mercy. You are a fool to rely on your friend’s promise. Did you really think he would sacrifice his life for you or anyone else? ” ” He has merely been delayed, ” Damon answered steadily. ” The winds have kept him from sailing, or perhaps he has met with some accident on the road. But if it is humanly possible, he will be here on time. I am confident of his virtue as I am of my own existence. “ Dionysius was startled at the prisoner’s confidence. ” We shall soon see,” he said, and left Damon in his cell. The fatal day arrived. Damon was brought from prison and led before the executioner. Dionysius greeted him with a smug smile. ” It seems you friend has not turned up, ” he laughed. ” What do you think of him now? ” ” He is my friend,” Damon answered. ” I trust him. ” Even as he spoke, the doors flew open, and Pythias staggered into the room. He was pale and bruised and half speechless from exhaustion. He rushed to the arms of his friend. ” You are safe, praise the gods,” he gasped. ” It seemed as though the fate was conspiring against us. My ship was wrecked in a storm, and then bandits attacked me on the road. But I refused to give up hope, and at last I’ve made it back on time. I am ready to receive my sentence of death.” Dionysius heard his word with astonishment. His eyes and his heart were opened. It was impossible for his to resist the power of such constancy. ” The sentence is revoked,” he declared. ” I’ve never believed that such faith and loyalty could exist in friendship. You have shown me how wrong I was, and it is only right that you be rewarded with your freedom. But I ask that in return you do me one great service.” ” What service do you mean? ” the friends asked. ” Teach me how to be part of so worthy a friendship. “ The words friendship and friends are thrown around rather loosely nowadays.

Nokia’s new CEO Rajeev Suri took the stage on November 14, and mapped out the future of the Finnish telecommunications giant after its phone business got acquired by Microsoft.
First off, as sad as this sounds, and despite some unsubstantiated rumors, Nokia doesn’t plan on making phones anymore. “We are not looking to a direct consumer return to handsets per se,” were his actual words. Still, there is a silver lining, and it is that there is an extremely high interest in licensing the brand, he added, so at some point in the longer term the Nokia name “will return to the consumer world.” Now, whether this will be with phones, or other devices and maybe services, remains to be seen, but the hopes that Nokia will quickly start churning out Android handsets seems dead and buried now.
As for the other aspects of the company, the CEO mentioned that it won’t have its HERE brand of navigation software compete directly with Google Maps, but instead rely on third-party licensees like Amazon, Microsoft or Yahoo, in business-to-business partnerships. We’d say that with the release of the beta app for Android and iOSthis ship had sailed, as the app offers options lacking in Google Maps, like offline navigation, but whatever rocks the boat. Nokia’s CEO expects that all three business units – Networks, Technologies and the mapping business – will be returning to growth and profitability very soon, but it’s the end of the line for Nokia phones piece that strikes us the most in the end.

All smartphones warm up a little during intense use. This is quite normal and nothing to be alarmed about. During intensive use, the phone draws a lot of power from the battery and this causes it to warm up.
What is abnormal is where your phone heats up tremendously and becomes hot. Sometimes, the only thing to fear is a burning sensation when in contact with your body. In worse cases, the phone may shut down, become unresponsive or reboot.
In the worst case scenario, the device may combust – burst into flames.
Also, note that heat drains the battery of your phone faster. The hotter it gets, the faster your battery drains, so you get the most out of your battery if you keep your phone from heating up too much.
What To Do If Your Phone Gets Hot During Use
1. Put it down a while and let it cool down.
2. Turn off WiFi or 3G/4G data. Internet usage are key power drainers in any smartphone. By disabling your internet connection, you cut off this factor, and of course mostly likely will put down your phone
3. Don’t use your phone in extremely hot conditions e.g near ovens, in direct, scorching sunlight.
4. Turn off battery draining apps. Those are usually apps that run in the background and using your internet connection. These may include Map apps, email apps, and ocial networking apps.
5. Sometimes, the problem is a rogue app – a badly written app – running in the background. Find it. Kill it. Uninstall it. Do not be merciful.
