Uyo – A Lecturer at the University of Calabar, Dr Edidiong Ebitu, has described the new demands by the Academic Staff Union of Universiti (ASUU as an act of sabotage of the education sector. Ebitu made the declaration on Friday in an interview in Uyo. The teacher, who is a senior lecturer in the Department of Marketing in the university, said he was in support of the Federal Government’s directive that lecturers should resume classes. “The various branches of ASUU had already voted to resume classes. The over four-months strike has done enough damage to the system. “The president had made reasonable concessions, so ASUU should resume for other things to fall in place,” he said. However, reacting to Ebitu’s views, the Secretary of the University of Uyo Branch of ASUU, Dr Aniekan Brown, debunked the claim that ASUU was making fresh demands. “ASUU is not making fresh demands, ASUU is asking for the implementation of 2009 agreements. “If any ASUU member says ASUU is making fresh demands, I doubt if that person is an ASUU member, that person is not informed,” Brown said. ASUU is demanding among other things, immediate payment of all outstanding salary arrears and allowances of members withheld during the strike. The union is also demanding a written commitment from the president that N225 billion will be committed to funding universities annually for the next four years. The Federal Ministry of Education had on Nov. 28, directed the authorities of federal universities to re-open classe immediately and to treat lecturers who refused to resume work as having resigned.

When asked where he could see himself playing next following Denmark's friendly victory over Norway, the Arsenal striker revealed he is looking to join one of Spain's giants.

Nicklas Bendtner has revealed he wants a move to Real Madrid or Barcelona when he leaves Arsenal. Bendtner attempted to leave the Emirates Stadium in the summer having fallen out of favour with Arsene Wenger, but is now training with the first team again as back-up for Olivier Giroud. And the 25-year-old, who has previously faced criticism for perceived arrogance, also insisted he does not consider money to be the most important factor when choosing a new club. When asked whether he 'chases the money', Bendtner told Politiken: "I do not. It is the sport that is the most important. I'm
going somewhere where I know I can be happy to play. "With a team where I can score goals and preferably to win something. I do not want to be sitting on the bench and staring. I love playing lots of games." Then, when pressed on where he saw his next club, the Gunners striker replied: "If I could decide, Real Madrid or Barcelona."
