Add IMSU and BUK to the number that has voted for suspension

This is the decision of UI zonal congress of ASUU, not the outcome of the congresses of other universities.

UI alone cannot decide for ASUU

Prof Orumwense should be very careful o. He should not stoop so low to the point of allowing himself to be used by APC miscreants who are not even half as learned as he is.

All these profs who are involved in elections, including the INEC chairman himself should know that Nigerians expect a high level of credibility from them. It is in times like this that they ought to distinguish themselves as standard bearers of the society.

somehow:
But you want to vote for another old man abi? 73yrs old Atiku

Not every man in their 70s suffers from dementia. Besides, Atiku is better educated than Buhari and still reads. A brain that is exposed to books hardly suffers from dementia. Obasanjo is another good example of an old man with an intact brain

Believe this twitter handle at your own risk!!

I now believe that this twitter account is fake!!
Believe this twitter handle at your own risk

babyfaceafrica:
i will quote u tomorrow..... and please check ASUU twitter this morning

OK o

mark1703official:
no sir, late comers association Nigeria students this strike must play over 4.5 shaa if you know you know

Hehehe...OK o

babyfaceafrica:
hope you know we have over 80 schools voting.... do you know what they want?

The majority of the universities have already voted for suspension of the strike. If Uniben of all schools (with their love for ASUU strike) could vote for suspension of the strike, then I think the strike is as good as suspended. Even UNN and ABU voted for suspension

babyfaceafrica:
you meAn the same. person who owns a private university.... let us wait and see

He understands the importance of education hence the establishment of a private university. Also, the economy would perform better under Atiku/Obi, so there'll be money to invest in education.

mark1703official:
guilty as charged sir

lol...so you belong to the non academic students??

babyfaceafrica:
easier said than done.... all government have been promising and fail, irrespective of party
.so it doesn't matter who wins the presidential election... they will still scope ASUU
...ASUU went on strike for six months in2013 during Pdp regime.... abeg they are all Scam

I believe Atiku will do better in education.

The majority who have voted for suspension of the strike would carry the vote at the end of the day.

somehow:
So because he's the president, he should be perfect?

Are you perfect at what you do?

Ever made speech error before?
Ever mistook a date for another?

If you have done any of these,then it's a shame on you criticizing a 75 years old man for mixing up dates.

It was a harmless error anyone could have made.

2005 and 2015 are not far off. He didn't say 1999, 2010, 1948, he freaking said 2005 instead of 2015!

You are irredeemable bro. Buhari's blunders have been consistent and that is a sign of mental incapacity. Why should a country of over 200million people have a demented man as president I'm very sure that Buhari is only being urged on by those who want to take advantage of his mental deficiency to loot our common wealth.
But I know that the majority of Nigerians are smarter than them and would rise up to resist them through the ballots.

babyfaceafrica:
Ui get sense....it is better they fight this once.... fg should sit up and Pay

I think they don't have sense actually because after this election and APC happens to rig themselves back into power, ASUU would beg to be called to meeting.


The best thing to do is to take what they have gotten so far from FG, call off the strike now and watch if there could be change of government. If there's a change of government they would restart negotiations on a new and better footing, if not they would hold the current government by their promises.

madridguy:
Tell her to follow her heart.

All these talks about following one's heart are deceptive o. Follow her heart now only to start expecting the guy to give what he doesn't have tomorrow.

Before she continue in the marriage she has to make up her mind to be the breadwinner of the family. If the guy makes it on the long run, good and fine. But for now she needs to prepare her mind for the worse.

creamylicious:
omor na uniben we dey rep ooooo.. no private University shi... one more month and we re ready for school

You can resume any time you like but strike would be suspended this week. Even without strike some students don't resume until few weeks to exams.

creamylicious:
Please continue until March when the elections would be over..... abi you think we would send our kids on a trip back to school with this political atmosphere??

The strike would be suspended. If your ward likes he/she can resume by August.


All these private university and unillorin students that would come here and be claiming parents and urging ASUU to continue the strike.

ASUU should never take online opinions serious!

somehow:
People make this kind of errors on a daily basis so what's the fuse? Is this what we should be bothering ourselves on rather than discuss issues each parties are raising at their campaign grounds?

Alot of Nigerians are shallow and empty headed.

Just imagine what you are typing!

We are talking about the president of the federal republic of Nigeria o, not the chairman of a village meeting!

This is not just an ordinary mistake but a telltale sign of dementia.

On every public outing he makes such blunders! He referred to Ogboru as APC's presidential candidate and then senatorial candidate. That's a sign of mental incapacity!

Bros, where's your conscience? Have Nigerians not suffered enough??

Poverty and hunger know no tribe



Poverty and hunger know no religion



Poverty and hunger belong to no political party



Unemployment does not respect any region



Hardship has no party affiliation




Fellow Nigerians, let's avoid sentiments while casting our votes.


Vote wisely!


Vote Alhaji Atiku Abubarka to fix our economy, unite the country and restore hope in the Nigerian project.

Keep spreading lies while Atiku is busy campaigning.
All the lies about Atiku being endorsed by witches, gays and now prostitutes are all meant to tarnish his image, but we are smart enough to see through all the lies.

From the way Nnamdi Kanu is going about giving people different nationalities, It could be a telltale sign of what would become the fate of some people if Biafra is eventually achieved.

I see a situation where Kanu would tell some people from Enugu, Ebonyi or Anambra that they are not Biafrans but Nigerians and so are not qualified to contest elections in Biafra. We all know that many people from these states migrated from northern Nigeria and settled there and have become parts and parcels of the states.

All the political thugs who are preparing to go and fight on election day, you might be unlucky this time around because the hospitals may not be open.

So, when you are rushed there for treatment there won't be anybody to treat you.

FG, pay JOHESU their money!

Atiku all the way!

ABUPHARM:
Brother, is like you didn't read the topic From d beginning.
What am saying is that vet.med isn't a bad course as people generally perceived.

My love and value for pharmacy is top notch, even when I spent four years sitting at home as I'm not regretting studying it in the north. It's an interesting course which I will never compromise with vet. medicine.

OK bro. Just remain focused in pharmacy. The opportunities here are numerous!

orion7:
the minister of health is a stupid man. withholding salaries? I mean who does that,?

johesu should push on with thier agenda. But the should banish the idea of becoming consultants. it will never work.




proud physician

God bless 9ja

The man goofed big time

If you have been paying ASUU since they commenced strike, why treat JOHESU differently




#PayJOHESU

The minister of health thinks that he can just cower JOHESU into submission. That man wrongly advised the FG to withhold the health workers' salaries thinking that it'll end there.

He only succeeded in creating more problems for the health sector by that singular act.


#PayJOHESU

blackboy:
Rubbish. They want to collect equal pay with doctors? Go to the hospitals and see their attitude to work. It's shameful.

They don't want to collect equal pay with doctors, they simply demand the government to honor agreements they reached and to obey court judgements given in their favour by the NIC.

There is palpable tension among top officials of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) and other top members of President Muhammadu Buhari-led government over the plan by health workers under the umbrella of Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU) to declare total strike this week, a senior official of the APC has disclosed. It would be recalled that JOHESU issued an ultimatum to the federal government on January 16 which ended on January 31.
At a media briefing weekend in Abuja, the JOHESU President, Josiah Biobelemoye, disclosed that branch executive representatives in federal health institutions and state chairman/secretaries of all member unions of JOHESU have been specially invited to attend a crucial meeting slated to commence tomorrow.
Already, JOHESU in collaboration with NLC/TUC have concluded plans to stage a national rally in Abuja to draw the attention of the federal and state ministries of health to the unending tyranny of federal ministry of health and state ministries of health directed against health workers in all health facilities at federal and local government levels on Monday, February 4. Baring last minute intervention by the Federal Government, JOHESU may announce indefinite strike action at the end of the meeting on Monday.
The demands put forward by the JOHESU to the federal government, according to Biobelemoye, include unjustified withholding of the salaries of its members for the months of April and May, 2018; upward adjustment of CONHESS salary structure; headship of hospital departments, implementation of consultancy cadre to their members and punitive actions against their members in Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Owerri and Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH).
The panic by the APC and the presidency, according to our source, is premised on the fact that any strike action by the health workers at this ‘election period’ will be a minus to the President Buhari’s ambition to return as president.
“This is definitely not the best of times for us. The fact is that we are under intense tension and serious panic following the threat by the health workers to embark on strike at this crucial time of our campaigns. If we allow these workers to embark on strike, we may lose many voters and that will not augur well for us as a government that is working hard to return to power,” the source said while responding to questions exclusively from The AUTHORITY in Abuja.
On what the government intends to do to overcome the situation, the top APC official who is also among those who have strong voice at the presidency said: “I cannot tell you categorically now what we are going to do. However, I can tell you that since the ultimatum ended, we have been restless. You know we are working to see how we are going to resolve the ASUU strike, now the health workers are on our neck. We are overwhelmed.
“Before the end of Monday, I assure you that the government is going to intervene in order to avert the strike action.”
The source, however, appealed to well–meaning Nigerians to join the government in mounting pressure on the health workers to ensure they did not announce indefinite strike after the Monday’s meeting.
The source who pleaded anonymity, called on the health workers, to, for the interest of Nigerians, continue to seek for other means of getting their demands met, but not through strike action.
On his part, while responding to a question on the negative impact of the strike by the health workers to the election, the JOHESU President said: “You will remember that JOHESU is a body that has always had a deep concern for Nigerians. We have waited for eight months, even though we are supposed to have started something, but because of our love for Nigerians, we waited this long period thinking the Federal Ministry of Health and the Federal Ministry of Labour and Productivity will be more patriotic.
“We waited and went through the process of dialogue, even when we are provoked and even when they disobeyed court orders. I think there is a limit to our patience. You will agree with me that, especially in the health sector, the saying that the patient dog eat the fattest borne does not work, rather in the case of the Federal Ministry of Health, the patience dog see no borne to eat. Our patience cannot be intact.”
Biobelemoye, however, called on all JOHESU members to remain alert to await further directives which will be communicated to them from the headquarters.
