theoctopus: Get your big head off Tinubu's ..$%$$^%! You are smelling badly!

Ngokafor: Dr Chris Ngige,you should have kept quiet during the whole deportation saga,or even condemned it half-heartedly in public and then settle with your APC crew in private.

...this gubernatorial election would have been a walk-over for you especially with the exit of SOLUDO(my prefered candidate)...now a little known Willie Obiano is now a threat to you...the sad thing is that if by paraventure he wins(either by rigging or otherwise), most indifferent voters like me(by virtue of soludo's disqualification) will not be surprised.

Proudly Anambra!

bodejohn: I see the issue on ground from a different perspective. I will also blame all the key players in the education sector for the rot we have on our hands now.

Is it true that the government entered into an agreement in 2009 and reneged or failed to honor it? This also happen in Lagos state in the case of the medical doctors, Nigerians will continue to doubt her leaders when the go back on signed agreements.

If truly ASUU is seeking a step change in our universities, how about some sacrifice from them, can the lecturers tell the government to keep all their salaries for the period they will be on strike to show that they are selflessly pursuing advancement in our ivory towers.

I smell selfishness everywhere, from government, ASUU, students, parents and including myself.

Boss13: I wonder why people choose to fight the OP and also why the OP was fighting back. All he did was to disseminate an information he got. Someone else also confirmed that ABU has gotten its allocation but individual lecturers are yet to be credited.

Now rather than fight the messenger, look @ the message. If lecturers are owed money, they should be paid (true). But the govt wants verification exercise so that they can know if the actual people fighting for this allowances are the true people. ASUU refused (I smell corruption and greed).

Well, the govt should pay these monies to ASUU so they can call off the strike. I will also fault the govt. Stop being reactive and start being proactive.

Verification exercise should be carried out. Government cannot afford to be throwing money to ghost workers. University accounts should not be credited, rather the individual lecturers' accounts should be credited.

The activities in universities should be audited and reviewed. We cannot afford union workers to hold the educational system in this country to ransom.

iykak47: Did Tinubu say he prefers either of the two? Why a grown man like you follow Tinubu like a Zombie?

theoctopus: [size=14pt]

Please advise this man to stop taking that thing!

atlwireles: Any attempt by Tinubu to talk down the SNC/NC will only isolate him in Yorubaland. There's no two ways about this fact. 2015 elections is not an issue. What Nigeria, we are trying to have elections in, is the issue.

confusion247: From the list of channels you wrote here means that ABG is a DVB NETWORK like CTL,MCL, METRODIGITAL, PBS, CATV(formerly CMTV). They broadcast in a particular locality or city unlike DSTV which is based on satellite and can be received from all parts of west africa/south africa/east africa.

ITbomb: Gov from South South ? Hmm
N500m

ketoprofen: hospitals, schools, water projects.
Who told u the roads are few? Many biko, tangible ones for dat matter, with beta bridges

engrfcuksmtin: I doubt your story cos I belong to the system Ahmad Bello University to be precise. Yes 30billion Naira was shared amongst the universities. As a matter of fact ABU was given over 2billion but it has not been paid to lecturers because they will have to calculate what to be paid to each person (responsibility allowance for those holding positions, excess work load, external examiners allowance, harzard allowance and so on). Also it is not possible for somebody that did not work for 4 years to be paid arears of earned allowances for four years no vice chancellor will do that in Nigeria. Yes there was a verification exercise proposed by the federal government towards transferring the payment of salaries directly from Ministry of Finance, ASUU refused to partake in the exercise because resident doctors that did are suffering for the failure of the proposed system.
My questions to you....
1. Is the state of our Universities ok in terms of teaching and research facilities
2. Are you satisfied with the quality of hostels, recreational facilities, office accommodation, lecture halls and other infrastructures?
3. Did you attend University?
4. Itemize the reasons why no Nigeria institution made it to top 50 Universities in the world

honeric01: Seeing Wesley80 as the op, i automatically knew i was going to end up reading lies similar to that of Abati and labara motiku.

Lol

wesley80: Oh dear, what have we here, a half wit intellectual? No wonder the kids are coming out dumber than they were before entering schools. An intellectual that fails basic comprehension test asking me to hang my head in shame? Now isn't that funny? Here's what I told you Mr intellectual, tell forumites that you know for a fact that lecturers in Federal institutions were not paid a years allowance on Friday or SHUT YOUR INTELLECTUAL MOUTH UP! Clear enough now? Till you can manage to say so, I stand by my post.

berem: What kind of stoopid thread is this? Lecturers have not been paid 3 years allowance,they managed to collect one year and you are blaming them? The strike must continue till all their allowances are duely paid. If you are not a lecturer and you are spewing trash here,you better shut up and let the lecturers fight for what is theirs! You don't feel what they feel at all! Let them fight for their money!

wesley80: ^After fuming you forgot to say the only sentence that truly matters : I just confirmed they've not been paid. Say so or shut up.

Sincere 9gerian: Every issue in this country is analysed along ethnic/partisan lines. Is it a mere coincidence that all the APC e-rats on NL have been supporting ASUU hundred percent all through the strike?

wesley80: Firstly, what makes you think I'll sit down and cook up sh*t?

Simple, because u ursef call it a sh*t and secondly because we know ur antecedents on this forum which is to perpetrate lies

Among your cycle of morons isnt there anyone connected to lecturing in a Federal institution you can verify from?

Actually the slowpoke is ur miserable friend who u claim is a lecturer but seems not to even understand the crux of the matter. now that its confirmed ur friend is a slowpoke i see no reason why u shouldnt be since u fools roll together.

Secondly, If you've been reading the opinion of students on this forum you'd know that most seem to believe ASUU are on strike due to the poor state of education in the country an impression repeatedly fuelled by ASUU with pure intent to garner public sympathy. A little truth wont hurt anyone would it?

Goon, the truth is ASUU is fighting for the poor state of the educational sector and also their allowances which the govt is owning them and not new allowances. i dont need some students emotions to determine what the truth is for me. besides students opinions on this issue is divided and its expected. leave the students out of the issue and face facts.

Thirdly, my lecturer friend is a junior lecturer that hasnt been working for more than 3years, but according to ASUU he's entitled to 4years pay since the total 97billion outstanding allowance was arrived at by multiplying ASUU's current staff strength with their monthly allowances since the agreement was signed.

U are a shameless liar. U and ur moronic friend. how can ur friend who was not paid for the years he didnt work now start fighting for the allowances of those years? are u ok at all? do u think u are talking to ur fellow fools here?
ASUU is too smart for this rubbish. ur friend is only entitled for the alowances of the years he has worked and not the other way round. Also, we have lecturers who has also either resigned or retired that govt also needs to pay because they are indeed owning them. Carry ur lies and share them to ur household. Nonsense.

ASUU have vehemently refused to carry out or take part in any verification exercise.

Says who? Are u saying if OAU for instance wants to carry out the verification of lecturers which they employed in the university, ASUU will say no? Now u are really sounding daft.

I believe all these are right because Jonathan and legislators also squander Nigeria's money right?

Indeed, Jonathan and the his cohorts are currently bankrupting Nigeria but it shouldnt stop ASUU for demanding for what is legitimately theirs and the resurrect of the comatose educational sector which we all are aware of. Stop b*tching around with ur moronic friend and face the issue as it is.

Afam4eva: Personally, i think this list is very flawed. Apart from Soludo, Akpabio and Omogui, El Rufai and maybe Nnaji(he didn't stay for long), i don't see what others are doing there. Where's Akunyili, Donald Duke, Iweala, Fashola?

Policewoman: And APC is a rotten corpse isn't it mr man?
