Paying ASUU 6 Months Arears Will Promote More Strike - Oblivion by Oblivion34: 10:43pm On Sep 01, 2022
ASUU declared a strike in February 2022.

Every meeting with the Union has always ended in deadlock.

The union, however, stood its ground and claims not to shift grounds until all of its demands are met.

Meanwhile, the union president kept referring to how the government has seized their salaries to influence their decisions and stance.

This is the month of September 2022 and the government has met more than 60% of the union demands.

All the striking unions already called off strike the past month after a brief meeting with the government.

ASUU has refused to call off the strike because the Federal government is not willing to pay them their 6 months salary arrears.

They've however been very tactical with the strike time frame. At first, they declared one month strike, then kept increasing the time frame while making it look as if they were willing to call off the strike in good faith.

They declared an indefinite strike after the government had met 60% of their frivolous demands.

Before the federal government thinks about paying the union their 6 months arrears, think about the effect it will have.

ASUU is known for declaring strikes every year because they often get paid before they resume back to class.

Where is it done that a union will declare 6 months strike, and still be expecting a salary for work not done?

There is without a doubt that the union has lost the sympathy of 80% of most Nigerians, and the only thing stopping students from declaring them public enemy No.1 in the educational sector is because of "fear"

If the federal government decides to pay them today, nothing will stop them from declaring a 3-5 years strike tomorrow!!!



ASUU is failing to realize that nobody is happy with the present-day government.

Declaring over 3 months of strike while expecting pay for work not done is selfish, and unjustifiable.

In a sane world, a union is expected to press its demands for a maximum of 3 months before resuming back to classes.

Before declaring an indefinite strike; the union claim they are not going to make up for the lost months if the government fails to pay them

No matter what happens, students will always be at the receiving end.

During our time, lecturers were so inconsiderate after calling off 4 months ASUU strike. They started exams immediately as if we were the cause of the strike/fight.

The bolded part has always been the tradition of ASUU. They don't make up for all the lost months.

"ASUU claims the strike is a sacrifice for the generation to come." They should also be willing to sacrifice their one-year salary for the generation to come.

Paying ASUU will mean more subscriptions to more strikes in the nearest future.

Not paying them their 6 months strike will make them more reasonable before declaring another strike in the nearest future,
(II) It will enable them to give more listening hears to what the government has to offer quicker, rather than standing on what they want!

THIS IRON LADY RESCUED THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT FROM THE 'MILITANT' CLAWS OF ALL KINDS OF UNIONS WHO BEFORE SHE BECAME PRIME MINISTER GO ON STRIKE RIDICULOUSLY MULTIPLE TIMES BY PASSING INTO LAW NO WORK-NO PAY POLICY FOR STRIKING EMPLOYEES. THE ONE AND ONLY MARGARET TATCHER.

I HOPE THIS GOVERNMENT HOLD THEIR STAND SO AS TO SAVE THE FUTURE OF THIS NATION BY NOT PAMPERING ASSU FOR THEIR CONSISTENT RASCALITY.

Go and look up the world history. No union can compete with ASUU total number of strikes, and it's not because of a bad government.

But because they eventually get paid after the strike.

Unions are supposed to express their grievances by striking for not less than 3 months.

6 months strike is overdo, unjustifiable and selfish of the union

The government will put an end to an incessant strike from ASUU as soon as they implement the above.


And that's the bottom line!

ASSU IS A TYPICAL REFLECTION OF POOR EDUCATION. GOOD EDUCATION MOULDS MINDS THAT THINK ALTERNATIVELY, PROFER SOLUTIONS, ARE INDEPENDENT. ASSU IS A SHAME TO INTELLECTUALITY TO BE HONEST. A BIG SHAME!!! BUCH OF USELESS PROFESSORS WHO CAN'T PROFER ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS THAN TO ALWAYS GO ON STRIKE WHICH LEADS TO NO WHERE.

A REASON WHY THE LIKES OF PROF. OLOYEDE WHO HEADED JAMB AND HAVE PERFORMED SO EXCELLENTLY, NEVER ALLOWED HIMSELF TO BE FOOLED BY THE DUBIOUSNESS OF ASSU SO AS TO MAKE THE UNIVERSITY HE PRESIDED ON, AS HER VICE CHANCELLOR TO BECOME A MEMBER OF ASSU. UNIVERSITY OF ILORIN RAN VERY SMOOTH ACADEMIC SESSIONS WHEN OLOYEDE WAS IN CHARGE. ONCE YOU GAIN ADIMSSION, YOU ARE VERY CONFIDENT OF WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO GRADUATE.

ASSU SHOULD BE SCRAPPED FROM THE SURFACE OF PLANET EARTH. THEY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT A DISASTER TO NIGERIA.

Jonathan was too soft; and we all know it!

ASUU do not control all universities. They are only in charge of the federal universities.

The affected ministers such as the minister of education, labour and other relevant ministers are expected to face ASUU, and then report to the president.

That's how things are done!

The president has other things to do rather than facing a union who are solely fighting for their pockets.

Every other demands are just for publicity stunts.

They are not considerate of the disarray in academic calendar caused by the pandemic in year 2020.

They are more concerned about inflicting more emotional and mental pains to poor students who chose public universities.

I LIKE HOW ABACHA REGIME DEALT WITH ASSU TOO. HE MADE THEM DOCILE LIKE A DOG CORNERED BY A HUNGRY TIGER.
ABACHA REGIME APPOINTMENTED MAMAN KOTANGORA AS THE VICE CHANCELLOR OF AHMADU BELLO UNIVERSITY, AT THAT POINT IN TIME A.B.U WAS MOST EFFICIENT TO HER MAXIMUM CAPACITY. MAMAN KOTANGORA WAS A NO NONSENSE MAN AND A WORKAHOLIC.

ALL THAT NIGERIA NEEDS, IS A POLITICAL WILL THAT WORKS. NOT TALK-TALK BUT ACTION. THIS GOVERNMENT MUST HOLD THEIR STAND AGAINST ASSU AND FIGHT THIS FIGHT ONCE AND FOR ALL.

NO WORK NO PAY.

I feel ASUU are too self centered, the economy situations all over the world do not support such bogus requests at this umpteenth time. ASUU has never fought for the welfare of Nigerian students since i was born all they always ask for is salary, salary and salary increment. Let them resign in droves, we've got many brighter minds out there looking for opportunities.

Nigeria is a funny country . FG will boldly tell u that it does not have the financial muscle to improve the education sector as much as ASUU are demanding , yet the same FG keeps establishing new federal universities and upgrading some FG owned polytechnics to Universities. U do not have enough money to run the existing universities to world standard , yet u are establishing more universities …..

No be juju be that ?

I wonder how old you are and if you have knowledge of what ASUU is requesting for. Your biased opinion is solely based on witheld salaries but you failed to mention the renegotiation of the current salary. How can workers be on same salary since 2009? It would be better if you can provide a more general view that this monolithic approach. This make you look like someone sponsored by the government.

Ok naa
..
Meanwhile....
PLEASE BRING THIS TO THE NOTICE OF INEC.

INEC should release the detailed analysis, the breakdown, and the categorisation of the accredited voters who came out to participate in the Ekiti and Osun Governorship Elections.
(Just the way they released the details of the accredited voters who Participated in the 2015 General Elections...
https://inecnigeria.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Presidential-Election-Analysis-2015-1.pdf)



We need to study the patterns of the participation in those two elections.

We need to know the number (and percentage) of the youths who came out to participate in the election.
We also need to know the number of “businessmen” and “civil servants” and “artisans” who came out to vote.
..
The information will help us to predict better about the supposed outcome of the 2023 Elections..
