Some university students have expressed mixed
reactions following the suspension of the three-
month old strike by the Academic Staff Union of
Students (ASUU).
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that
the strike was suspended on Thursday, Feb. 7,
after a conciliatory meeting between ASUU and
representatives of the Federal Government led by
the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator
Chris Nigige.
The lecturers had demanded for the
implementation of agreement entered into by the
government with the union, including university
revatilisation fund and earned allowances.
Some Nigerian students who took to Twitter to
express their opinion said the action was a tactic
to deceive youths because of the coming
elections.
@iniobong tweeted: “How ASUU strike has not
been a dominant issue in the ongoing
presidential campaigns shows how unconcerned
we all are about our shoddy education system.”
@oheng2000 said “As much as I like the fact
that #ASUU has called off its strike, personally I
think this is wrong timing. One week to election?
Are they looking for ways to get students back to
school and use them for election thuggery?
Students shine your eyes ooo. Don’t be used.”
@Mayowasam1999 said “It is really a good step
by the government, but we all know if there were
no elections they won’t attend to it. I just pray
we don’t go back to where we’re coming from
after the election.”
Meanwhile, others expressed readiness to return
to school.
@Bams_Jnr tweeted: “ASUU has finally called off
the strike, yay!”
@Tchinedvu tweeted: “Finally ASUU strike is
over, I can now finish this 400L in peace.”
Nifemi Adebowale, who just gained admission
into the Federal University of Technology, Akure
told NAN he was happy to finally start his
university education, as his peers in other
institutions were now ahead of him.
“My parents advised me to start working to keep
myself busy till the strike is called off.
“My peers are now in their 100L second
semester while I am just about to start my
university journey.
“I am just happy that finally, I can resume school
since I gained admission into the university last
year,” he said.
Meanwhile, ASUU said if the Federal Government
fail to fulfill its part of the agreement as
reflected in the 2019 memorandum of Action, it
would resume its suspended strike .

Ike Ekweremadu, deputy senate president, who
presided over the legislative chamber, adjourned
plenary till February 19, three days after the
presidential and national assembly elections .
He told his colleagues that they had exceeded
the time of sitting going by their rules.
“Dear distinguished colleagues, in view of the
fact that it is after 2pm, we cannot proceed any
further so we have to adjourn accordingly,” he
said.
“The senate hereby adjourns to Tuesday, the
19th day of February, 2019 at 10am prompt.”
The recess is coming only two weeks after the
national assembly resumed from the Christmas
break.
The lawmakers had passed a bill seeking to
increase the minimum wage to 27,000 for
second reading.
The senate passed it for second reading after a
letter by President Muhammadu Buhari was read
by Ekweremadu for the consideration of the
lawmakers.

Golden pussy...

Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi
Frank, has asked the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) Chairman to resign
his appointment for attending a clandestine
meeting and plotting to compromise the
forthcoming presidential election in favour of
Buhari through the appointment of Buhari’s neice
to oversee the collation of presidential votes even
before the first ballot was cast.
He stated that he is in possession of reliable
information about how the INEC chair and Zakari
were smuggled into the villa at about 12.30am
on Thursday after which Buhari, accompanied by
few of his trusted aides, joined them inside the
Glass House for the meeting.
He disclosed that Yakubu arrived for the meeting
in a Black Peugeot 508, wearing a blue caftan
while Zakari came in a black Prado Jeep,
wearing a jalabiya.
He said the meeting lasted for 45 minutes.
He noted that Amina Zakari was the
Commission’s head of electoral operations and
logistics before she was redeployed to the
department of health and welfare in October 12,
2018, following misgivings about her clear
partisan posture in various elections conducted
when she held sway as head of operations and
logistics at INEC.
He added that her relationship with Buhari
became suspect as many believed she was
working for the re-election of her uncle – Buhari
– and the success of the APC, which became
obvious in the Edo, Ekiti and Osun governorship
elections and other rerun elections that she
supervised during the period.
He said that the appointment of Zakari to such a
sensitive assignment was a culmination of the
pressure the Presidency had brought to bare on
Prof. Yakubu to return Zakari to the Operations
department since October.
Frank called on the Chairman of INEC to resign
his appointment for attending such a clandestine
meeting and plotting to compromise the
forthcoming presidential election in favour of
Buhari through the appointment of Buhari’s neice
to oversee the collation of presidential votes even
before the first ballot was cast.
He added that Nigerians have lost confidence in
him to conduct a free, fair and credible 2019
elections.
“A man who can succumb to pressure and
brazenly compromise to further the desire of a
candidate in an election cannot be trusted to be
impartial during a general election with high
stakes. I think he needs to undergo a test for
codeine and tramadol abuse to think that
Nigerians can be fooled that Zakari’s recent
appointment is not a back door move to make
her relevant in caring for Buhari’s interests during
the Presidential elections,” Frank stated.
He observed that even though Buhari benefitted
from a free, fair and credible elections in 2015,
he is not ready to advance the nation’s
democracy by sticking to free and fair elections
this time.
Frank said: “This is largely why he has refused to
signed the amended Electoral Act 2010 and has
now shopped for his Neice to oversee the
hatchet job of rigging him back to power.
“Buhari is running away from a free and fair
election. He is depending on INEC and the
security forces to allocate votes to him. That is
why he refused to sign the amended Electoral
Act.
“As a perpetual law breaker, he has again broken
the law by refusing to allow the Inspector General
of Police, Ibrahim Idris, to go on retirement after
spending his ‘overly doctored 35 mandatory
years’ in the service of the country as a Police
Officer.”
He insisted that Nigerians are hopeful that
Buhari’s desperation will not set Nigeria ablaze
post elections but lamented that “the way he
(Buhari) is going, crisis will definitely engulf the
country because the opposition is determined not
to accept any rigging or compromised electoral
process during the next election.
“If Buhari has any iota of integrity, let him
demonstrate it now by allowing for a free, fair
and credible elections in February and March. We
know he has no integrity and the opposition is
ready to meet any of his shenanigans with equal
and greater shenanigans.”
The Bayelsa-born political activist called on all
patriotic Nigerians including the NLC, TUC, ASUU,
NASU, ASUP, NBA, NMA, traditional and religious
leaders to speak up in order to avert Buhari’s
rigging plot capable of plunging the country into
a bitter and violent crisis.
He also called on the United Nations and
Nigeria’s allies in the advanced democracies –
as members of the international community -
working to sustain peace across the world to
come to the aid of Nigeria at its most trying
times.

President Muhammadu Buhari said, yesterday, in Abuja that he understood the yearnings of Nigerians and strongly believed in the collective dream for a greater country, assuring that all will be done to ensure that results of 2019 elections reflect the will of the people. Receiving letter of credence from the Ambassador of Finland to Nigeria, Jyrki Juhani Pulkkinen, President Buhari said Nigerians reserved the right to elect leaders at various levels in 2019, and all efforts will be made to safeguard the integrity of the process. He said: “I respect the people’s feelings. I assure all that we will have a free and fair election next year.” The president congratulated Finland on its 101th independence anniversary, December 6, and commended the growing relations with Nigeria, especially in areas of Information Communication Technology (ICT), trade and education. In his remarks, the ambassador said the areas of mutual benefit in relations with Nigeria can be extended to electricity, smart technology and crisis management initiatives, pointing out that he will work hard to improve the trade figures and exchanges. President Buhari, who also received letter of Credence from the Ambassador of France, Jerome Pasquier, said French President Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, and the stopover in Lagos, was really impressive in bolstering both countries’ relations.
