The presidency on Wednesday for the umpteenth time pleaded with the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to call off their five-month old strike just as it claimed that the sum of N200 billion requested by the union as a sign of faith that government is sincere in its commitment to revitalize the nation’s comatose universities, has been paid into an account with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The Senior Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, said at a press briefing in Abuja that the account, a “revitalization of Universities Infrastructural Account,” was authorized by the office of the Accountant General of the Federation on November 13.

Stressing that there were now more than enough reasons for the nation’s striking university lecturers to return to the classroom, Okupe said, “I state categorically that I have personally seen the balance in the account as of today and confirm that it contains the requisite amount and disbursement will commence as soon as on-going administrative processes are sorted out”.

He also used the opportunity to reaffirm that the President and the administration have no credibility issues whatsoever.

“Mr. President has always honored his words and obligations to the Nigerian people as and at when due,” he said.

The presidential aide dismissed the four items mentioned by ASUU as preconditions for calling off the strike, stating that none of them “remain substantially pending or weighty enough to justify the continuation of the strike”, adding that “therefore, there are no legitimate reasons for the strike by University teachers to continue a day any longer”.

ASUU had given the following pre-conditions to the Federal Government:

•Commitment from the President that any review or reconsideration or renegotiation of the 2009 Agreement will not substantially affect the pact which is the cause of the ongoing strike;

•Immediate payment of all outstanding salary arrears and allowances of varsity teachers without victimization; and

•A written commitment from the President that the Federal Government will commit N225billion annually to the funding of universities for the next four years.

There is a fourth condition, which is said to be “personal” to ASUU, bordering on the need to be wary of gradual loss of public sympathy.

While appealing to the leadership of ASUU as well as other ‘patriotic’ members of the union to put all else aside and call of the strike in the interest of Nigerian students, who have been kept at home for 5 months without any form of ‘compensation’ whatsoever, Okupe said, “Having come this far, we believe it is time that we all come together once again as major stakeholders in the affairs of the country and the educational sector in particular to move on and begin to chart a new course for advancing the sector and improving the standard of our institutions for higher learning|.

He concluded that “There are no victor or vanquished in this protracted disagreement.”

Information Nigeria recalls that the Federal Government last week indicated it would sack the striking lecturers if they did not return to their classes yesterday (Wednesday) although it postponed the deadline to next week Monday, 9th December, ASUU ignored the threat, opting to continue their strike.

Phemmy99: re-read his post..

abeg help me tell dat idiot

yunglykmine: You have a point there.

abdurrazaq: What terrorism are you blabbing about all around the forum. Can you put sentiment apart for some minutes and reason like a human that you are. The Nigerian FG is not to be trusted and, any reasonable person or group of persons dealing with it should do so with all forms of cautions at his/their disposal. The Federal Government is the one terrorising the masses/students as far as this face-off is concerned. Honour the agreement you entered into, that's all (in Shem Obafaiye's voice)

i think you should shut up ur mouth on dis issue

foolish ASUU...a dog heading to its grave does not hear the call of its master...atleast they will now leave the stage in shame..

onyeka205: I hope you know the labour law? Based on this law, they are entitled to their salaries. You said they should give FG 2 weeks ultimatum? What if the salaries were not paid after the expiration of the 2 weeks ultimatum, what would they do?

mr labor law shut ur ugly trap nd stop talking nonsense

jhidey08: Hw do u want ASUU to call off strike when our Govt is insincere wit dem. Let dem agree 2 doze conditions 1st and c if ASUU won't call d strike off, den we can say ASUU is heartless.

Federal Universities ordered to re-open for academic activities

The Committee of Pro-Chancellors of Federal Universities has ordered all Federal Universities in the country to re-open for academic activities.
This decision was conveyed to all the universities by the chairman of the Committee of Pro-Chancellors, Prof. Kimse Okoko in Abuja on Tuesday.
Scan News learnt that following the new conditions introduced by ASUU after the negotiations, the Federal Government through the Pro-Chancellors resolved to take charge of the process.
For readers on this platform who have closely followed our incisive reportage of events, they would recall that when Scan News first broke the news of the meeting between President Jonathan and ASUU, we also intimated readers of the Plan B option.
This option was earlier stepped down, after both parties made progress and negotiations were concluded at the highest level.
It was gathered that upon re-opening of the schools, the Governing Councils have been duly mandated to exercise full control of the university structure, especially in the areas of discipline of staff who may want to disregard the order for the commencement of academic activities.
A Pro-Chancellor who preferred anonymity told Scan News today that no government can continue to fold its hands while politicians hijack its university system under whatever guise.

s!s! afrika:
We are talking about universities, EBSU sef is showing face!
Dat secondary school?
Mtchwwww

you a very senseless individual....

Hearme: The two lecturers are betrayals'. It was learnt that Dr. Daramola called ASUU NEC stupid for refusing to hold NEC meeting because of the death of Prof. Iyayi. He has no regard for life and I think he holds no principle when it comes to unionism. It was also learnt that he was booed out of the congress, when he refused to apologize to Congress members. It's a big propaganda that ASUU wants to end the strike in January. We all know that the Labor Minister said that ASUU will talk to its members and get back to government. The meeting has been scheduled for today. ASUU does not want a situation in which they will be told the permanent sec, who signed the current letter ob implementation modality does not know his right from his left.

Abeg shut up ur mouth...regard for life ni regard for life kor....was iyayi not against the suspension of the ongoing strike..as for me it was God who silenced him for good...contest the fact and join him in ur early grave

am hopeful...as long as there is life there is hope

lord please give ASUU and FG wisdom from above to reach a resolution to this lingering strike....please FATHER let it end this week so we can go back to school again...FATHER make a way for us your children where we think there is no way....thank you ABBA FATHER for answered prayers...in JESUS' name we pray AMEN.

the current governor of Imo state has decamped from the former party he was back to the peoples democratic party(PDP) how funny and annoying things can get in this great country of ours. Some say its illegal while some say its legal but the bottom line is his reasons for such act, sometimes when things like this happen our law makers just sit down and watch things go terribly wrong, pls people i want Ur opinion on this our honorable president was present at the occasion i believe its all foul play.
