Education / ASUU Strike May Be Called Off Soon As FG Blinks by lawsbanks: 8:38am On Oct 17, 2013 |
Towards ending the ongoing ASUU strike, the Federal Government has committed to spending N200 billion in the 2014 budget on the universities as well as on each of the next three-four years until the universities are brought to world-class standard. This is in addition to the N100 billion dedicated and already made available for 2013. The government has also increased to N40 billion as a first installment, funds for the payment of earned allowances to the striking lecturers, an improvement from the N30 billion previously released. This information is contained in an internal Federal University of Otuoke statement by Professor Bolaji Aluko, its Vice-Chancellor, seen on Wednesday night by SaharaReporters. On the earned allowances, he explained, “Government will top it up with further releases once universities are through with the disbursement of this new figure of N40 million, so Vice-Chancellors are urged to expedite this disbursement within the shortest possible time using guiding templates that have been sent by the CVC,” the circular said. Professor Aluko said the development followed meetings on September 19 and Oct 11 of representatives of the Association of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities, led by CVC Chairman, Prof. Hamisu of ATBU and ASUU Representatives led by its President, Dr. N. Fagge with the Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Arc. Namadi. Sambo, Minister of Education Barr. N. Wike and others. Of great interest to stakeholders, Vice-President Sambo, appealing to ASUU to call off the strike, apologized for the "take-it-or-leave-it" comments credited to the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala at the onset of the strike. The Minister did not seem to have been involved in either meeting, perhaps as the government’s way of soothing the feelings of the university teachers. Other points of agreement at the meetings include the following: Project Prioritization: Universities will now be allowed to determine their priorities and not be “rail-roaded” into implementing a pre-determined set of projects with respect to the NEEDS assessment. Decisions are not to be centralized. TETFund Intervention: Government assured that the operations of the TETFund will not be impaired, and that the regular TETFund intervention disbursement to Universities will continue, unaffected. So the NEEDS assessment capital outlays are in addition to regular TETFund intervention. Project Monitoring: A new Implementation Monitoring Committee (IMC) for the NEEDS Assessment intervention for universities has been set up to take over from the Suswan Committee. The new one is under the Federal Ministry of Education and chaired by the Honorable Minister of Education. In addition, to build confidence and ensure faithful implementation and prevent any relapse as before, the Vice President will meet quarterly with the IMC to monitor progress. Blueprint: ASUU was mandated to submit a blue print for revitalizing the Universities to the Vice President. Prof. Aluko further stated that a signed document will soon be issued to itemize the full issues on which the consensus he had outlined here, as brokered by AVCNU, was reached. http://mobile.saharareporters.com/news-page/ASUU-strike-government-blinks-agrees-spend-n200b-each-four-years-bring-nigerian-universiti |

alexleo:if you have read through paul's sojourn you will realize that he is a man that makes risky journeys even when prophets told him about the doom to befall him in a certain city, he still went ahead.......Demas must have left paul for the fear of physical death and probably a lot of stress, love of family, etc,.......that scripture is inconclusive of Demas leaving the faith.......pls be fair on Demas 1 Like |

Politics / Hoodlums Fight Over Money Found On Crash Victims by lawsbanks: 5:35am On Oct 04, 2013 |
Some hoodlums on Thursday were seen exchanging blows and throwing bottles at one another over the money they found on the dead victims of the Associated Airline plane crash. When our correspondent got to the scene of the incident, he observed that the hoodlums had turned the road leading to the crash site to a boxing ground. It was learnt that when the hoodlums were assisting in the evacuation of the victims, they allegedly searched the victims’ pockets for money and other valuable things. It was also learnt that they fight ensued due to alleged ‘insincerity’ in the sharing of the money they stole from the dead. One of the hoodlums, identified simply as Loko, was heard saying, “You won’t believe that after the whole rescue thing, we luckily found money and they don’t want to share it equally.” Source: PUNCH |

Car Talk / Re: Do You Drive Auto Transmission With One Foot Or Both? by lawsbanks: 7:11pm On Sep 20, 2013 |
lomomike: Before I started using Automatic transmission, I used a manual transmission which entail operation with both feet, when I switched to Auto transmission, I used both feet. Over time, I ressigned using my left foot meaning only my right foot did all the job. Nowadays any time I try taking my left foot any where the brake pedal to give even the slightest pressure, it results to an error. I over depress the damn brake pedal Gosh I missed those sweet good ol' days when I do the two feet driving technique But... I shall bounce back somedayyou're right about over pressing the brake when you use the left foot! It happened to me when I switched to automatic.....I guess its because the left foot is used to pressing the clutch down |
Education / What Is Nans? National Association Of Nigerian Students? by lawsbanks: 2:17am On Aug 22, 2013 |
What is the usefulness of this association to the nigerian students? Who are those in the executives? What are they up to? Do they occupy this offices just to sap money from nigerian politicians? Or they are there to give awards to undeserving citizens for the sake of financial gains from this political figures? Not even a word from them since this strike started! Now this are the people that will want to become our minister of education,minister of finance, commisioners, and even president in future! They can't even say a word to this ugly situation that has put nigerian students in idle mode for more than 50 days. Obviously they are not concerned. I urge all nigerian students to use every media possible to speak up and shun cowardice! 1 Like |
Religion / Re: Wearing Jewelries Takes One To Hell? by lawsbanks: 3:23pm On Aug 18, 2013 |
Dreal1247: Pray for God to open your eyes and also to help you effect the change if necessary. I learnt from one of the confessions that when Apostle Joseph Ayo Babalola stopped earrings, that was the year that many people made heaven. If God does not want it, why not let go of it. After all, whatsoever one cannot forgo for God's sake is considered idol or another god. The Lord God will surely see us through.what? Were u the one marking the register of people going to heaven that u know that many people made heaven that year...........I give u a capital LOL 7 Likes |
