The End time is here.

The gods are angry with America.

She better go and ask Osodeke, their ASUU chairman to help her with some loans.

After all, na him carry dem enta strike.

And now, money no dey again for dia pockets.

Well, we did vote in APC to always among other things, anticipate failures and take countermeasures.

Don't excuse Nigerian government failures with American government failures.

Wetin concern me?

Failure is failure anywhere and whichever way you look at it.

If it were to be in Nigeria now, all these idiots will start blaming Buhari as if Buhari is the reason why they can't impregnate their wives.

GambaOsaka:
Let ASUU to go on strike na.
They can not .
Only the lucky few that have other means of livelihood like teaching part time in a private university will support another strike.
Now they realize that they can not just sit at home and get FREE MONEY.
Hunger never finish una.
Operation No work No pay is the ONLY good thing this government has ever done.

E don finally clear dem for dia eye na.

By the time most of dem go come out from their huge bank loans wey still hol' dem tight for neck, dia full sense go don reset wella.

Educated Fools.

bdon123:
No work no pay is a policy by federal govt....its not law.Labour laws are similar all around d world...its one of d fruits of democracy.If an industrial action is called,the workers get paid for time on strike.

I Hope you will realize how stupid you sound now one day.

Eriokanmi:
You're one of the reasons buhari called youths lazy. You even mentioned equipping of library with ASUU half salary. With this alone, I conclude you didn't know Jack, on why they embarked on that strike in the first place. Students welfare contributed over 60% of the reason they went on strike, including the equipping of the library you ignorantly mentioned.

If you were owed piled upn arrears in your workplace and.your employer keeps saying he'd fulfill his promise and years later, the situation remained same, what wouid you do to get your owed salary? Be sincere. That's what ASUU had done. It's not only the failed government of the day, which you're defending that were culpable in the reneged promises, past pdp governments, some of whom are now members of the apc today also caused the mess. That's why we're sending both parties off next year Feb. They've done Nigeria to many bad than good. That over 100bn stolen by that accountant-general alone could have gone some way in addressing part of the ASUU demands. Na so so corruption this government sabi. They're not interested in the Nigerian future.

No need for all this your nonsense long story.

ASUU went on strike because they wanted 180% increment in their salaries.

Their strike was totally for their own selfish interest.

If you believed otherwise, or you believe ASUU when they mention all those university revitalization and IPPIS matters, then you need your sense of reasoning to be checked.

Roboto11:
Shut up.

Where in the world are people paid for going on strike?

Mumu.

Don't mind that idiot at all.

Na wetin stupid entitlement mentality dey cause.

Ask him if he would pay his workers in his own company for not coming to work.

FromTopToBottom:
a written agreement for that matter

Whether the agreement is written or not, does not mean that the agreement must be implemented, most especially when it becomes obvious that the terms of the agreement is non feasible.

So this useless ASUU is still talking?

Instead of thanking Oga Femi for saving their face and providing them with an opportunity to come of their shameful strike, they are busy here lambasting the man.

Fools.

Hahahaha

The unending drama continues...

Bvmsson:
I feel they increased it to get students attention then will later reduce it to the amount they wanted to just to make students feel they were heard.... Las las na 50% Dem go reduce am to.

You sabi wetin dey.

coputa:
ASUU has outlived it's usefulness.

I swear.

If ASUU continues with their nonsense, then the Federal Government might have no other option again other than to de-register ASUU.

bcomputer101:
I pity dem bcs some hoodlums aя̩̥̊ε̲̣̣̣̥ payed †̥ start dis riot I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ order for the school management †̥ make some millions of naira from the money D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ wil pay after the riot as repairation fees.... I PITY DEM.

You don't even sound coherent at all.

I pity you.

Spain is a big disgrace.

Originalsly:
Hmmmm..... funny people.... who supposed to be intelligent .Lecturer title gone to their heads and pushed out common sense. If you go on strike it means you refuse to show up for work. Where in the world does one stay home.... even if sick ... and expect to be paid by the employer? If you have paid leave.... then the leave is used.... if you don't have leave then you're not paid. Foolish kecturers...Lecturers.... they should all be fired.

That will show you the type of stupid people entrusted with providing education for the future of the country.

They want to be paid for going on strike?

Who does that?

So this useless ASUU president still dey talk?

Oga ASUU president, no pay; no work kii you dia.

You led your members into losing their 8 good months salary and you still dey talk?

Foolish man.

LordIsaac:
Pay Nigerian lecturers well and they will churn out "productive graduates." Simple!

Story for the gods.

Hahaha

ASUU calling for protests??

That one mean say their brain don finally reset na.

If na before, na straight to strike one time!

But the no work; no pay policy has cut them to size.

Foolish people.

emmysmith13:
A hardened Criminal is very dangerous to the society. Agbado urchins una never see anything. God bless David Hundeyin for his documentary on YouTube.

David Hundeyin is a top journalist.

His stellar and highly commendable exposure on emilokan will continue to haunt emilokan forever.

Why is this man so interested in shaking tables?

AAA593:
I laff

Continue laffing na... dat one konsign you.

AAA593:
This strike for nor reach 8 months if no be Ngige cause am. Ngige is not a good negotiator.

For your information, Governor Chris Ngige is one of the baddest negotiators on the planet right now.

Ngige is the type of person you need on your team if you are serious about striking a solid deal in any negotiation.

ASUU has been taking everyone for a ride since ages because only ASUU benefits from their strike while everyone else including the students, the parents, the government, the small scale business operators in the university town, etc, counts their loss.

But thanks to Governor Chris Ngige's SMARTNESS and tenacity, ASUU has been completely demystified, exposed and castrated.

bimbodotun:
Thumbs up to Ngige....He showed he ain't coming to sell ice cream....Since have been born...ASUU have been going on one strike or the other.. now he gave a lasting solution......I pray government pay ASUU though on compassionate ground not as a matter of right.

I share the same opinion with you on this.

I want the government to consider thier plight and pay them because if eventually they are paid, I will still benefit.

But...

ASUU should never see going to strike as their right.

ASUU has gone on strike for too much a time.

Too much of everything is bad.

No work; no pay is bae

Imagine ASUU deciding not to go on strike?

Completely unheard before.

But all thanks to no work; no pay, ASUU's brain has been completely reset.

To God, I fear who no fear General Buhari.

lailo:
Nothing will do them. They will be voting for Tinubu, not APC of Ngige. These characters will be relegated when Tinubu assumes office. He is doing Igbo agenda to destroy Tinubu's chance. Also same thing Emefiele is doing, even though I support his naira reform but he is not doing it in good faith. They believe Tinubu has money in stock and want to prevent vote buying which I also support. These Igbo agenda are targeted at Tinubu. Even Buhari doesn't want Tinubu, not for anything but bcs he is seen being too powerful. But all of them will lule including u that I'm quoting bcs I know u are a zombidient

Tinubu's old age and health status rendered him completely unfit for the top job.

Don't get it twisted.

Ngige and Emefiele are Buhari's appointees.

If Ngige and Emefiele are following Buhari's orders, why do you still want to see things from your ethnic angle?

obagofizzy:
Nigeria is finished , the kind strike that ASUU will embark ehhh

Obviously, you are not aware that FG has now completely defeated ASUU when it comes to strike.

That no work no pay strategy is really a huge game changer.

ASUU can no longer just wake up and call for strike the way they have been doing before.

If ASUU now wants to go on strike, they will also have to make arrangements on how to pay their members during the strike because it is now clear that the government will no longer pay them for going on strike.

9jatriot:
What many people do not realize is that ASUU actually started their strike in 2020, then the government warn them of the no work no pay rule. FG had already began to implement the no work no pay rule, then COVID struck, and there was lock down, and FG had to pay all its staff (civil servants) their salary even though they could not go to work during that period.

So, during the COVID/strike, all ASUU members had to do was wait till the end of the month, go the bank on a day they were working (many of them were working half day), collect their salary and then wait for the next month. Free money.

Finally, COVID reduced and life was gradually returning to normal, then ASUU begin to release lyrics that they were planning to continue their 2020 strike. So, February, 2022 they began their strike again. They notified the government that they were downing tools and that the strike was total (meaning, no research, no marking of script, no lecturing, no attendance). Once again, they were reminded that labor laws transfers payment of salaries during such strikes from the employers to the union. That meant that since members have been paying dues to ASUU, now was the time for ASUU to replicate and start paying their members while negotiations went on. ASUU went on with that understanding but believed as they usually do that they will have their way.

To cut all the long story short, ASUU refused to pay her members during the strike and as such many lecturers have been left completely broke, whereas ASUU leaders are the only ones who get paid by the union.
What many people do not know is that, when ASUU say they are holding congresses to discuss whether or not to go on strike, it is only a handful of members who make that decision and not the generality of members.

Finally, ASUU called off their strike sometime in October of 2022, so FG has now resumed payment of their salary from the day they started work. So, forget that story that ASUU was paid half salary, instead government only resumed paying them as soon as they started working again. The implication of this if it is applied to the letter is that ASUU which has been collecting dues from her members, now owes them a salary of 8 and a half months.

The benefit of this arrangement are as follows:
1. Parent/students, FG and ASUU, everybody now loses. In the previous arrangement where they get paid for going on strike. Parent/students lose in terms of time, house rent, some even lose their sponsors. FG loses in terms of public opinion and goodwill as well as pay for no work done whereas ASUU was the only one that does not lose since they collect money for no work. Now, all parties lose.
2. If ASUU had succeeded with this strike, just know that there would have been more strikes loading, but right now many unions are very cautious
3. FG will now be obligated to try and be in the good books of the masses and will try to invest more in education but it won't be because of blackmail. Investment in education will now be more wholistic and cater also for primary and secondary, rather than ASUU wanting to corner everything all the time.

Hopefully, all parties would have learned their lessons

Point of correction, ASUU went on strike in 2020 because of their refusal to register into IPPIS.

The ASUU members who registered and even those who later went to register into IPPIS were all being paid during the 2020 ASUU strike.

This thing right here sounds more like fake news.

Fools.

If you like go on a One year strike.

Thank God for no work no pay policy of the federal government.

Oluwatech:
This should probably the best comment of all time...

FG has their reasons to pay what they paid and the union are trying to blame everything on Government again ...

They actually destroying the academic life of many students outside

ASUU is just senseless.

What a pity.
