This is the most senseless post i have ever seen in my life.. "My people surfer because of lack of knowledge" when you have no clue or understanding about a thing just STFU, no student is happy with the strike, However have you thought or seen the state of our educational system, you haven't seen students sitting on the floor to receive lectures ?... well during my time it happened , so oga go and read or make research as you lack, wisdom knowledge and understanding whatsoever.

Oga you won't be the first to sit on the floor to receive lectures.

I went through that process as well.

Experienced it during my secondary school days where I'll sit on the bare floor, or I use my polythene bag (where I keep my books) as chair.

The education system is going to improve in Nigeria, but we won't acheive anything tangible if the union keep striking every year.

Karleb:
If your parents are lecturers you won't be asking this stupid question.

And your parents are wise enough to be resting at home, throwing tantrums here and then and denting the image of the government because of an agreement made in 2009, and because they want UTAS.

I chose to not reply him because silence was the best answer for arrogant fools like him

Pls No need for insults. Just make your point. Tnx

Fuckyoumod:
this is the nonsense they sell to mentally docile brains in Nigeria and they fall for it.

If Lecturers want the salaries if politicians they should resign from their lecturing job and join politics.

Lecturers are not the only civil servants in Nigeria. They can't be rewarded for frustrating our children and students.

Please my son don't let people take advantage of your gullibility.

Thank you

[quote author=Oblivion34 post=117860646]In my defense, ASUU has always been unreasonable in negotiations with the federal government.

ASUU were insisting on suffering themselves and the poor students by not calling off the strike.

They also claimed to be ok with the "No work, No Pay" policy. [color=#990000][/color]

Aside from that, we'll always see them insult the government at any given chance; either on social media or live TV.

They also said they were never going to beg the government because they were clearly the boss of them and not the other way around.

Why should they be paid when they were willing to stress the strike up until the next year unless they get what they want?

Why should they paid when they told students to sacrifice two years of their time for them?

Why can't they also sacrifice their salaries for the cause?

It's important to note that ASUU was willing to stress the strike for as long as they want because they were 100% sure of their paycheck before or after the strike has been called off. [color=#990000]

If they get paid, who will compensate the students?

I am sure the students have already been compensated with exam timetables. And lecturers are preparing to come and stamp their foot on the ground in lecture theaters to brag about how they'll get paid whether they come to class or not.

I want to implore the federal government to adhere strictly to the "No work, No pay" policy.

This is the only way we can use to break ASUU's wing and allow our students to graduate at the appropriate time.


How long will the government keep begging ASUU? Year after year, ASUU must declare a strike!

In my opinion, the salary issue should also be tabled at the court of law. I will love to see them win that case in court

The "No work, No Pay" policy must stand in other to curb yearly strikes.

From your write up here, you don't really understand anything about the subject matter.
Sorry to say this, you are displaying ignorance in public.

Please why should everyone go into politics

Since the lecturers are envious of the politician's.

Go into politics and make things right for all of us.

If you can't do that, please hold your peace!

abobote:
Yes they deserve their salary.
The strike caused by the Federal government inability to keep to the agreement. Its not the fault of the lecturers

Oil de ur head

Non of my parents lecture in a public school.

Some lectures do not care about ASUU and whatever the agreement is, they have kids and just want to work and enjoy.

They have gone hungry for what they care little about, it will be irresponsible to say not to pay them as many of them have no other source income.

Yes and other benefits.

Oblivion34:


How is it your business that their children are schooling abroad?

If you have the money, send your child abroad and shut up if you have nothing meaniful to contribute to the matter

Dumb and slow GOAT.u have nothing meaningful upstairs. So,they use their own personal savings to sponsored their own children to sch in IVS schools while u struggle here..Ur own DUMBNESS nah pro max/ u inherited it from ur father

Can you please point out where you saw that lecturers are envious of politicians?

very well !

why would they want to collect money for doing nothing ?

can they pay if their domestic workers abandon work and come back after eight months to claim salary ?

Mumu dey worry them !

Curious345:
Yes ..

Absolutely yes they do..

If I was a lecturer ,I will not return to teach until I am paid

They will sack you straight.

I feel the government needs to be educated that they are the Boss of ASUU, and not the other way around

I Am in support of your submission �. Enough is enough. If govt paid them now they will do the worst next time.
I heard him saying they are in debt. So they are living large on work they did not do.
Academicians that lack knowledge.

Kasssandra:


(Note..I agree with you , but I want to draw your attention to some things)

1.ASUU goes on strike repeatedly because universites...need money.

2.No Nigerian university is in the top 100, or even top 500 global universities in the world...plus we cannot do advanced research in many things...for idnsutry, healthcare, etc...because...poor funding.

3.ASUU members want to work with high quality equipment, labs, libraries, lecture halls, and want better welfare for themselves, students and other staff.

4.Government rightly tells ASUU every time that the money is not sufficent.

5.So how do we stop ASUU from going on strike....raise fees. To levels like 1 million naira and above.

You don't like? But you just basically said that ASUU is wrong to go on strike.

Either fees go up, or in ten years private universites will surpass public universites. Guess who suffers more...the poor.

So shutting down schools and absconding from work for 8 months by ASUU will solve the problems?
ASUU enjoy going on strike cos they are sure it won't affect their paycheck even though they are aware the strike will be futile but they take solace in the expectation of the free salary while wasting students time and facing their private businesses.

Oblivion34:
The ASUU President, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke had in a recent interview noted that the lecturers had called off their action and returned to work but were challenged by the nonpayment of their eight months salaries which had posed a huge challenge for the lecturers to meet their daily needs and be able to discharge their responsibilities to the returning university students.

Mr. Odiir said the returning lecturers might not give their best because of the obvious challenge of lack of funds, “and that means that the universities would be reopened but teaching and learning might not take place because the lecturers are not motivated.


“So we are appealing to the Federal Government to fulfill its part of the bargain to effect the payment of the salaries of the returning lecturers to enable them fully resume work.

“There is no doubt that the lecturers would obey the court ruling and resume classes but they would certainly not be able to engage in lecturing if they don’t start getting their eight months salaries.


“That is why the Federal Government should pay them without further delay in the spirit of the agreement brokered by the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

“We also appeal to the Speaker to do a follow up to the good work he initiated to have the lecturers call off the action by impressing on all the relevant authorities to have the salaries paid so that our public universities can roar back to life.

Na speaker broker peace or na court order them to call off strike? Were they at work for the 8 months they’re requesting that they be paid for? Will the ASUU president pay his personal staff if they don’t work? It is this confidence that they will be paid for the months that they were at home whenever they choose to call off their strike that makes them go on strike whenever they feel like, the government should not pay them for the number of months they were not at work.

Some of them borrowed money to marry second wives during the strike. Now they are expecting FG to pay them as usual so they can start planning their next strike

Curious345:

Cool, hope you’ll pay your personal staff should he/she decide to sit at home and not come to work for months

No

Try barking like a dog again on this space and I'll deal with you.

Can you please point out where you saw that lecturers are envious of politicians?

It's everywhere, always making references to oil company workers, Senators and ministers salaries.

Buhari won't pay them any dime for those 8 months, so they better make up their mind now. They can as well embark on another strike so the 8 months can increase.

JJuanMiguel:

So shutting down schools and absconding from work for 8 months by ASUU will solve the problems?

Nope, either

1,Government increases fees

2.Government finds more money...by taxes, removing subsidies on petrol...

3.Or we accept the status quo ante, and accept our bad universites...as they are.


Seems you want option 3. Well, you are rich, because you can afford to send your kids to the better private schools or abroad...while government schools get by on poor funding...

Not at all
ASUU has turned strike into an enterprise.
Strike should be seldom applied .

ASSU members are usually used during election to facilitate rigging and they will turn around every other year to keep our wards at home while hoping to keep earning their salaries

colestephan86:

We can continue to be reckless, if you don't work you can't get paid.

You the president I suppose...

It seems an average Nigerian doesn't even know what ASUU is fighting for. Hopefully ASUU backs down so the average Nigerian would understand what's happening.

lawrenzooo:

The issue is, when you have spent extra years in school, not because of academic issues, but because ASUU went on strike a year before you wrote Jamb for 11 months....and then continued in your 200 level...you don't want to hear about 'they are doing it for better funding'

Not when your parents are spending money...a lot of it, to keep you in school. And when even when you are still at home...and your parents are spending money to keep you fed.....

At some point, the reasons make no sense, and one becomes an ASUU critic.

Me I know the reasons, and I know the solution. And the solution...raised fees...is not acceptable

At the end, people want to get university finished quickly.
