I support ASSU 100 %. Why should a professor with over 20 years teaching and research experience earn less than 12 million per annum? If the government refuses to pay then let the universities remain shut for the foreseeable future
20 years experience and research without any scientific breakthrough.......they still uses 1960s books to teach

Classic definition of "we die here".

ASUU has the unwavering support of well meaning Nigerians. This educational rot has to be addressed once and for all. And this irresponsible government is very well known for lies and deceit. This particular bone don hang them for neck.
so to address the educational rot is to accede to 100% increment for university lecturer salaries?

At the end of the day, these lecturers are all useless and a corrupt bunch who sleep with students for grades, sell copyrighted materials, and hardly teach.

They're just as corrupt as the leaders.

ASUU should take the 35% and see if they can reach a deal with the new government coming in. Enough is enough. The stupid government wont bulge neither would they summit a bill to force you guys back to work while negotiations continue. This is not only affecting students and staff but other miscellaneous staff that depend on students to survive like all the mamaputs .

Biodun556:


I pitty those who believe that ASUU is fighting a just cause

Ones politicians increase their allowances, ASUU will go on strike and comparing their salaries with that of politicians using that to affect the future of the students

Politicians have limited time to spend office, ASUU are civil servants that have 35 to 40 years in service. It is wrong for us to be comparing the take home of local government chairman With that of a professor

God bless you! We keep telling them there's no where in the world where academics earnings near the salaries of the people in the politics and the industries.
If you want to earn as much as those people, resign and cross the politics or join the industry.

FG is playing politics with Education as usual like they played politics with security. Unfortunately, they met their match. FG have proven to be incompetent, bereft of the tiniest of compassion and they are definitely lost, clueless and a big failure. They deliberately and they are intentionally allowing this strike to linger so that they can hand over their irresponsibilities to the next administration while feeding fat on months of unclaimed salaries of ASUU and other University based Unions for the period of strikes.

They rode upon the wings of anti-corruption facade to power, now, they have impersonified corruption and taken it to another level. Security has become an utopia dream thanks to the effontry and boldness of marauding killer herdsmen, Boko Haram and bandits. They have sank trillion into refineries that have not produced a single litre of oil while paying 1500 refineries workers a staggering 180billion yearly as salaries. Their AGF, ministers, staffers have been involved in looting 100s of billion from national coffers and even from IPPIS with reckless abandon like we have a paper tiger C in C.

While they keep increasing their salaries and bonuses daily, they keep salaries of workers at the mercies of higher inflation. No one will support this administration without sounding stupid. Now our students, our children have been at home for close to a year now and they keep using hunger to break the will of the workers who keep producing the human capital that can make this country great besides oil and taxations jist because their children don't attend those schools. They keep our hospitals in dismally poor position whole they fly to UK at the slighest symptoms of headache. These government must be given red card and shown their way out in this coming elections and we must give individual that will appoint credible individuals into positions. APC and PDP are cancers that must be rooted out of our system because they are brothers of the same mother.

Ibegtodiffer:

A General in the Army (equivalent of a Prof) earns 3M. Entry level at NNPC, FIRS, EFCC, CBN earn b/w 200k - 350k. New Professor earns 322k while Professor at bar (20-30yrs) earns 416k, yet "ASUU own too much"? So how much is the realistic amount in you opinion for academic? Let's be fair.

Shey you want professors to earn like Army-Generals.
Tell them to carry arms and go and fight terrorists

What most Nigeria working class Lacks is a good and sound functional Brian. Majority of Nigerian civil servants doesn't know that they should be demanding 175% increase in their salaries to cushions the effect of inflation in the country. Nigerian inflation is above 180% hence the salary of Nigerian worker is totally useless, cannot even sustain feeding talkless of others expenditures

I do understand ASUU position but nowhere you get %100 increase. Inflation will wipe out the economy. I believe ASUU can be reasonable and make their demands incremental over 3 years to allow the economy absorb the shocks of excess cash flow without correspondence increase in production cos government giving in to their demand will kill off 9ja economy that is already on life support.



But the inflation no gree wipe the economy with the fat salaries and benefits our politicians are taking. undecided

why not resign and look for other jobs?

If your current job isn't paying you as expected, the honorable thing to do is to resign and find a high paying job.

If they want the salaries of Shell, Agip and Mobil staff they should resign and job oil companies, if they want the wages of a politician they should resign and join politics let's see how far they can go.

After all their professorship for over 60 years has brought nothing meaningful to Nigeria.

ASU must understand that if FG mistakenly give in to their demand other sector of the economy would come for theirs. This is why I must say it loud " ASU's demands are unrealistic" they are university teachers.

How much is the salary of a medical doctor? Judges? Directors?

ASU na thieves!

Not everything you must comment... Imagine this, everyday I see your post on IG, you are in balling and you owe me. My money is a paltry sum of what you spend in one night, after confronting you heavy. You say you will pay 35%, nobody in their right mind will accept those terms

I see many people here still saying ASUU own too much. I don't know Africans are just like this!

What has that 35% nonsense got to do with value for education?

It is still not comparable to the unnecessary and needless waste that go into cost of governance!! Did anyone fight last week before they increased SA and other government officials allowances??! Why is it easy for them to increase salaries of politicians in contrast to others?

A professor cannot boast before a councillor in Nigeria.

What ASUU is fighting for will benefit me and you futuristically one day. They will not remain there as Lecturers. They'll die and the young ones will continue from there.

If education becomes lucrative today in Nigeria, the rush to join politics will reduce since education will run side by side with it. This is one of the things ASUU wants to happen. Our youths don't even read again because they know if they get one political office tomorrow, professor will prostrate before them.

Honestly, education is suffering serious underfunding in Nigeria. We must begin to value knowledge and brains with economic empowerment. Imagine me as an academic going to farm everyday in this strike when I'm supposed to be putting one ground breaking research into writing that will benefit the society. A white man will focus on his research in his lab because his government will provide him with everything he needs to make him comfortable and to not bother so that he can pursue his research. He even has grants that will feed him and his family till death.

Here, we do research in hunger. No full concentration. We go dey do side hustle join. And when the govt announce 35% increase and ASUU rejects, Nigerians start empathizing with this evil govt.

What have the lecturers and professors in these universities contribute to the society. Teach students well to understand and comprehend - they no do, do research and impact to society- they no do. But rather engaging students in sex and taking money for grades. These are pathetic set of people, do not even want to call them professionals.

Before anyone spew garbage on what I wrote, I was a professor for many years overseas where research and scholarly work are the basis for promotion and salary increase.

Let one of these lectures and professors provide a single thing they have contributed for their many years of work sitting down, selling their own notes, no research, and degrading the noble profession.
I agree,with the depression Nigerian lecturers make mee and thousands of students face, I would never support them. They do absolutely NOTHING. I live abroad now and these lecturers also earn little but their impact could easily be felt in the society and as a student,all I want is to continue schooling. They make life so easy,I can decide not to go to school with filmsy excuses and they will understand,that doesn't deterr my learning and evenake me healthier and learn betterr because its not a forced learning but the type I enjoy. If internet is down, they will consider us and redo classes for us,if theress traffic same. But in Nigeria, I remember when there was Nasu strike, and no bus to take uss to class, a stupid lecturer who hass a car/driver and was able to navigate her way went ahead to conduct exam, only those who uses car were able to write the test and many of us couldn't as we never knew Nasu would start strike and we already planned out timing to the faculty. That day, I ran like aa mad dog from the University gate to thee faculty (very far), and yet he conducted the test. I can't even count the numbers of frustration and useless assignments. Poo,i will have my womb removed than to allow my child school in that useless country called Nigeria

I thought students should start making their own demands too like
1. They should lower tuition fees in most of our federal and state owned tertiary institutions.
2. Upgrade the standard of hostels.
3. These lecturers should stop forcing handouts on students. It has made education very expensive. And even if they have to, it should be at affordable rate.

Well, students know their wahala. They should speak for themselves.

The 2009 agreement specified Re-negotiation every three years. That has not been done for 13 years now due to FG double standards. So, 100% only in 13 years is a very reasonable demand. It takes care of the past
