why are education ministers Adamu and nwajiuba fighting for FG instead of ASUU, Concerned Nigerians Ponder


According to Information gathered from many social media pages and handles by myschoolnews.ng, many concerned Nigerians are wondering why the Ministers of Education are fighting for the Federal Government instead of getting their duties done as Ministers for the people.



According to Nigerians, the Ministers' of Education first priority is to make sure the Educational sector of the country runs smoothly. Having the interest of the students and staff in all levels of study at heart.



But instead, anytime there is a disagreement between the Federal Government and Educational Institutions, these Ministers seem to blame one Academic Union or the other for their actions.



We can take the case of the Federal Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu saying a few days into ASUU's one-month warning strike in February 2022 that the Federal Government is not to be blamed for ASUU's strike, adding that they were already making arrangements for settlement and suddenly heard that the Union had gone strike.



Moreover, it could be recalled that in 2020, the Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba as at when ASUU embarked on a 7months strike, had told members of the union to consider resigning from their lecturing jobs instead of striking and take up farming as a profession.



Whereas, these people although employed by the FG, were employed because of the people; i.e in order to give quality education to every student in the country.



Hence, if we say we are really practicing democracy, then we should be the priority of the Government as well as the Education Ministry in the nation.



There should be a genuine display of the service they have been called into, the Education Ministry should see to the betterment of our School Systems, Staff and students.

I’m Tired of Farm work, Federal University Student Cries Out to FG and ASUU over prolonged Strike.



According to a report reaching myschoolnews reveals that a Student of Nasarawa State University, Miss Jane Andrew has cried out to the Federal Government of Nigeria and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) over frustrating effects of unending strike.


Jane has recently lamented of tiredness of having to work on farm land instead of attending normal class activities in pursuit of her career.


This and many other pathetic conditions have become the order of the day for almost every Nigerian Student as some now roam about the streets in search of menial Jobs, others engaged in one skill acquisition or the other.



However, to think that there is no sign of agreement between the Federal Government and ASUU is really frustrating on the parts of many Nigerian students.

Blame Adamu Adamu and Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba for incessant strike in Nigerian Universities,, I have my children in public universities - Chris Ngige Minister of Labour, They don’t feel ASUU strike.



The current Minister of Labour and Employment (Nigeria) Chris Nwabueze Ngige has charged Nigerians to hold the two serving Education ministers, Mallam Adamu Adamu who is currently serving as the Minister of Education and Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba the current Minister of State for Education of the Federal Republic of Nigeria responsible for the incessant strike in Nigerian Universities.



According to him, the two Education ministers are under performing in their duties and have always shown nonchalant shrug in addressing the endless Educational problems facing Nigeria since they became Ministers.

He, however, lamented the attitude of that the ‘bosses’ at the Federal Ministry of Education, who do not feel the ongoing university strike like him whose kids attend public universities in Nigeria.


Ngige, however, appealed to the striking lecturers to reconsider their action and opt for picketing to press home their demands.


“As a conciliator, I have to make use of the labour instruments at my disposal. There are things that are above me. I am not Minister of Education. I cannot go to the education minister and dictate to him how to run his place. But I told ASUU that you should be bombarding them at the Federal Ministry of Education for this to be moved forward. There are many ways to do so. If you go to the labour act, there is something called picketing. You can picket. Strike is an ultimate thing. Picketing means that you can stay at the corridor, clapping or singing. Workers are permitted to do so. But I am tired that every time that there is a disagreement, it is strike.

The ministry’s spokesperson, Patience Onuobia, in a statement, on 12, April, quoted Ngige as saying he has been pushing to see that everything contained in the 2020 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the government and ASSU was implemented.

BUSTED: How Former OAU SUG Pres. Oyekan Ibukun, Dr IBK defrauded Institution N1 million on phone calls & over N3 million for union bus he bought for N700k.



Nigerians have raised the alarming fraudulent activities currently going on among Nigerian Universities and tertiary institutions,The birth of the following hashtag #OAUGATE has given so many Nigerians a voice to share their opinions/ experiences from the Nigerian student unions leadership.



A report reaching myschoolnews.ng reveals that the Oyekan Ibukun (DR IBK) led administration has gone far in derailing the Union from its purpose.



The administration which commenced its parliamentary session on March 6, 2017 having Oyekan Ibukun (DR IBK), a medical student as president has been one driven by selfish and personal interest in a wheel of dictatorship and tyranny.

Some Alumni members of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) made shocking revelations about Oyekan Ibukun (DR IBK) led administration;



A twitter user @AdejumoKabir2;

The current #OAUGATE reminds me of my days in Ife. Oyekan Ibukun, ex-SU predident got suspended because some of the reports we did on how he spent over N1 million on phone calls & how he collected over N3 million for union bus he bought for N700k.

@ccupofbecca:

I remember that year. He was always nonchalant during congresses, always making irrelevant phone calls and always laughing sheepishly. He made OAU students a laughing stock back then, he is at it again. SMH


@IkumapayiJ;

hat's how it is all over.. In fact anything SUG is d the training ground for corrupt leaders of tomorrow



@physioode;

Haha IBK Omo weyrey, the guy get mad sense, book sense dey, 419 sense sef Dey



@AjoseGideonT

Why did your branch in OAU allow the Impeached Union President wire money from the Union Account without signatures from the signatories? @UBAGroup



@Iam_lordmayor

Eyin student leaders e ya werey gaan oh�� How will you be using Student Union money to play Bet9ja?!?!!! #OAUGate



@FeranPR:

Great Ife Students, even if IBK is arrested, Maximum Shishi MUST be performed on him. It's a disgrace to see a former Union leader act in a foolish way!(even if he was impeached) A petty thief who stole 1k at faj go chop Maximum shishi so what of 720k own? #OAUGATE #OAUTwitter



@Olakunleyy;

Dr IBK in his statement at the Security Investigative Unit denied ever meeting any member of the current Executive Council.



He however has been moved to the Police Station at Moore.



Toorh.

#OAUGATE



@Nurse__lyon;

The president of the student union claims he had other things to focus on rather than tackle prospective funds embezzlement, lmao I’m convinced we’re in a circus � tbh because wtf was that? #oaugate.

Further investigation carried out by myschoolnews track team expains in details the dirty politics played by the Oyekan Ibukun (DR IBK) led administration.


However, in what can be defined as misplacement of priority, the president became hell bent on interfering in the selection process of members of the committees and was in pursuant of this so as to have committee membership as compensation for his loyalists for their respective roles played during the electioneering process. Owing to the fact that the Speaker of the Union was from his faction, he made to influence the process but was denied by the Speaker who had his own motives of having such in place. The speaker refused to honor a list of members of the committees as was submitted to him by the president claiming that it was very much unfair of the president to desire an hundred percent membership of all committees and council of the union at his feet. Irrespective of what may be, for fairness to be in place, all ideologies ought to be represented but the case here was otherwise.


On another note, the president as against the provisions of the constitution went ahead dipping his hands into the treasury of the Union, spending every penny of the Union without any budget for such expenditures submitted to the parliament as provided by the constitution. Even in Nigerian government system where things are defined as being so abrupt, expenditures are not carried out without the consent of the national assembly by the executives, howbeit that a pacesetting union of youths and future leaders embark on such height of barbarism and rash action where there is no simple respect for the rule of law.



The president upon realizing that he could no longer dictate the manner of operation of the parliament thus swore that there would be no successful parliamentary sittings. In this regard, having realized that parliamentary sittings hold in evening hours, he communicated swiftly to the quarters in the school authority to ensure that light is put off on campus every time a parliamentary sitting is convened. So far, the last four parliamentary sittings which held in the evening were cut short by blackout on campus followed by rumble in the dark. This has been all sponsored by Dr IBK with a sole aim of ensuring inconclusiveness of all parliamentary sittings. However, in resilience, the parliament made to setup committees which may be defined as almost the only achievement of the parliament so far. These committees were disregarded by the president who went ahead to lock up all their respective offices and thereafter summoned a congress solely to dissolve these committees. However, while the president was bent on manipulating the congress to his will, the congressmen were fast to identify the mischief rocking from the president and objected his moderation. However, the president shunned all students and declared the congress closed. Shockingly, the following morning, the secretary general released a memo communicating that the president has declared all committees dissolved and the speaker suspended from office. This was largely disregarded by students who found it as null and void as the president by traditions and constitution does not have any sole right to dissolve any committee nor suspend the speaker.


The president after declaring the parliament to a halt communicated to the school management who forced that no hall of residence should host any parliamentary sitting as parliamentary sittings were traditionally held in hostels. Not stopping at that, while the speaker devised a means of summoning parliamentary sittings to hold in the morning on weekends as lights were always put off at night, the president went ahead to sponsor thugs, non-students and cultists to disrupt every attempt to convene any sitting and many students were brutally beaten by men of the faceless world on OAU campus.


So far so bad, the administration has not been able to achieve anything other than a bus which was bought through a scam by spending the union fund without legislative approval on a bus whose receipt of purchase bears an address which was traced to be a no commercial outlet let alone a car dealer’s shop. The bus said to be bought at white house, famia road, Modakeke has been disputed by many as not worth the acclaimed price of 3 million naira as shown on the receipt and as such has led to numerous investigations by students . Firstly, while the body of the bus is a Toyota vehicle, its tyre rims are that of a Mercedes benz which points to the fact that the so called tokunbo bus is a locally used vehicle. Also, the address on the receipt was visited by students and was found out to be a residential building which houses no commercial operations let alone a car deal outlet. However, all efforts to call the presidents to answer questions have proven abortive.


As it stands today, the president has summoned two congresses where he intends to dictate for the generality of students and have been disputed in such but he is hell bent on taking things his way. On several occasions, students have booed the president chanting songs of mockery on him, calling him thief and all sorts and the recent one was at the last congress where he fled as students chased him calling him thief. He was thereafter successfully smuggled off by his bodyguards to safety and was declared wanted by mass of students. Presently, the atmosphere on OAU campus is tense as Oyekan Ibukun Edward (DR IBK) refuses to show himself to students to answer to the probe of the bus and other matters rocking the administration.

UNICAL regulates Food prices and others on Campus, Charges Students to report defaulters

It is safe to say that the challenge of increased price of goods and services on campus has now been successfully addressed, as my team and I have worked tirelessly, holding meetings here and there with the service providers on campus whose monetary charges recently increased to ensure that the price of their goods and services remain regulated.

Our meetings have yielded positive results, the outcome being that these service providers have agreed to our terms, henceforth the price of goods and services on campus remains regulated.

Speaking of agreements reached, to name but a few:

◽Food in MALABOR AND FEMALE HOSTEL would now be sold for ₦300, except for White soup and pepper soup which would go for ₦400.

Food in Cameron would now go for 400# for all Soup except White soup and Pepper Soup Rice Which Would go for 500#



Hall 2 Price would be Regulated soon as my Team and I would be meeting them soon

◽Barber's charge for a haircut goes for ₦200 for light and generator.

◽Ironing of clothes would be ₦50 when there's light and ₦100 with generator.

Report any shop who sells or render Services outside the Price Listed above.

I would continue to do all I can to the best of my ability, to ensure that the welfare of all *malabites and malabresses* is guaranteed at all times.

I Only Strive to Achieve Perpetual Excellence- Valedictory Speech by Taiwo Oluyale, FUTA Class of 2020 Best Graduating Student

I give God all the glory, honor and adoration and thanks to Jesus Christ the author and finisher of my faith, my personal Lord and Saviour. It is with great honor and prestige that I stand before you today, on behalf of Graduating class 2020, to give this valedictory speech. I am full of gratitude.

I will like to talk about my journey in FUTA. I never competed to be the best, I only strive to achieve perpetual excellence, and fortunately other things were added unto me. I always thirst for knowledge. I evaluate my skills on a monthly basis, and I always strive to add new skills (both digital and non-digital) every month. My philosophy is always to be better than who I was yesterday.

Hmmmmn, I’ll like to tell you that I have passed through so many challenges in the course of my study in FUTA. There was a time I was away from school for more than two months, myself, my doctor, my parents and my friends were all scared about my health status whether I would make it. I had to do marathon reading when I finally returned. It was the most stressful and challenging period of my life. There were times we pleaded with our landlords to extend the payment deadlines of our rents. There were so many other issues that time will not permit me to mention. In all, I give Glory to God.

Dear distinguished Class’ 20, our graduation today is a testimony to the glory of God, and to our

hard work over the past couple of years. Dear colleagues, do you remember the mechanical

drawing (MEE 101) stress? The times you would not take your bath before going to class? The times you felt so lost and confused? The times you cried alone at the corner of your room? Times you decided to forget about your crush to stay more focused? Times you read something but something else surfaced in the exams? Times you rushed and squeezed yourself in the school iron shuttle bus? How about the fun you had on the CSP 210 farm? The anxiety of tests and exams? The apprehension of checking your semester results, group works, and individual projects? Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic frustration? Times you had to cope with other personal life issues. Those are now memories we will remember for the rest of our life.

I dare to say that we are all strong and winners because all those experiences refined us to become proactive, better leaders, better innovators, good business men and women and excellent scholars. NO WONDER FUTA GRADUATES ALWAYS DOMINATE THE WORLD.

We have been refined. Regardless of our class of degree, we have all done well! I celebrate us all! We are all unique, vibrant and energetic! I have no doubts that everyone in class’ 20 will grow to become great ambassadors of our dear institution (FUTA).

I know many of us are worried about the next step to take, I am equally worried. However, my message to you is to believe in God and in your capabilities

Moreover, let us always remember and pray for Nigeria wherever we find ourselves.

Whatever life throws at you, take a deep breath and deeply echo the slogan of our great FUTA

“Technology for self-reliance”.

To the undergraduates here, I encourage you to give your best to your academics. Learn both

inside and outside the classroom. Take advantage of the power of technology. Take deliberate

actions to be digital literates (learn relevant software). Manage your time and set your priorities

right. You are the greatest motivation you can have.

We wouldn’t’ have been graduating today without help and push from good people around us. I would mention that I have personally enjoyed the company of good people around me. I want to thank my parents so much for their relentless prayers and support.

Many thanks to my amiable and beautiful H.O.D, Dr. (Mrs) V.O Akinola for her motivation,

care and encouragements. I also want to thank my passionate lecturers and mentors: Dr. O.

Alake, Dr. P.O Akanni, Bldr E.A Ijigah, Bldr Makanjuola, all other Lecturers and Staff of

the Building Department and many others within and outside the School of Environmental

Technology. You have all deposited great knowledge, skills and virtues into me. I also want to

thank all my Departmental Colleagues for their support. You are all awesome KINGS AND

QUEENS.

I want to thank Professor E.B Oladumiye of Industrial Design Department and Dr. Paul

Olopha of Statistics Department, both have been helpful all through my time in FUTA. I also

thank the Apostolic Faith Campus Fellowship for their prayers, consistent tutorials, and for

helping me learn more about music. I will miss your concerts!

THANK YOU TO MY BACKBONE, MY TWIN SISTER (OLUYALE KEHINDE), who is

also graduating with a strong first class today, I LOVE YOU.

I so much appreciate you my motivator and my best friend, Adebanjo Temitope, you are

Irreplaceable.

On behalf of the graduating class, I say a big thank you to all the parents of Class’ 20 graduands,

you are our hero! Thank you for your sacrifices of love. Can we all give our parents a standing

ovation please? Class’ 20 says a big thank you to all our family and friends from far and near,

who came to support us, and thanks to all our great lecturers, we will remember all the lessons

you taught us. We also say thank you to all non-academic staff, your works are highly important

and recognized. Thank you to our wonderful alumni association. Please keep supporting FUTA

students, it is not easy. Moving forward, we do not know what tomorrow holds, but we know who holds tomorrow, God.

On a final note, I wish FUTA A HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY, for 40 years, you have

consistently produced quality products. Please wish us well as we go.

GOD BLESS BUILDING DEPARTMENT, GOD BLESS SCHOOL OF ENVIRONMENTAL

TECHNOLOGY, GOD BLESS FUTA, GOD BLESS NIGERIA, AND GOD BLESS US ALL

Following the mandate given by indigenous people of Biafra(IPOB) for every Monday's sit at home in Southeast Nigeria, [url]myschoolnewsTv [/url] has conducted a Vox pop to get the opinion of University of Nigeria Nsukka students on the effects of this IPOB mandate on students .

1637493149-unn.jpeg

Nnam Johnpaul, a third year student from the department of masscomunication of the institution speaking to [url]Myschoolnews [/url]stated that the mandate by IPOB has contributed immensely in making students lag behind in their academics schedule and called on government to take actions to stop this mandate.



He also revealed that the mandate is really affecting him negatively.



Another student from the University revealed that the issuance of sit at home order has also led to lecturers not coming to class to teach students and that it has left students with difficulties in their academics pursuit



He said"it is affecting me negatively in the sense that with the sit at home order most of the lectures do not come out, like today for instance we have six to five lectures but only two of the lecturers came to teach"



He recounted how getting transportation to the school campus for students outside the school has become very difficult as most shuttle drivers also do not come to work on the sit at home days
