This is the same card played during Jona's era.

- Forced ASUU on strike close to a year or so.
- Intensify insecurity
- Gain the emotion of Nigerians

Clench power, but it has been blood bath ever since. This is not the Nigeria I meet growing up. Nigeria is now synonymous to Afghanistan.

Tell it not in Ghana nor in South Africa; how has the mighty fallen?

Na true talk you talk E really pain me see how our universities dey suffer. ASUU dey fight for better condition, but the main problem na the way we dey run our universities. Some African countries, their universities dey generate money pass government allocation. true research wey companies go pay for, dem get consultancy services, and dem even sell products wey dem invent.

But for our Nigeria, our universities just dey look only for government money. No research wey dey bring income, no strong partnership with companies. How we wan better like dat?
If our universities begin to generate their own money, dem no go dey too depend on government, and these strikes for allowance and equipment no go too dey.

So, the matter no be only about ASUU and FG fight now, but how our universities fit stand on their own feet and stop to dey beg for money every time.

The School of Medical Sciences isn't developing new medicines, and the School of Engineering isn't creating innovative inventions. If these institutions cannot generate practical solutions, what are their actual goals and vision? And as an individual, how much can you truly achieve without this critical support system?

They should tell use the percentage of their graduates who found success while using their certificate... I am sure it is less than 1%

If our youth can find success, many would proudly invest or donate to their schools.

We have a country that professor are involved in illegally during election. No research papers on how to fix the problems of this country or how to stop their top-professor form criminalities.

Their certificates have changed the lives of many of their students,

Many of the poor students during the time I was in uni are doing fairly well. Many have built homes. Sowore was a year my senior.

Their going to university changed their lives tremendiously

Which one be ASUU self? If you are in academic or you have someone there you will understand. Earning 200k monthly with PhD and load of work, is that way to go? How much is Senators salary? Is that the same way the medical doctors are been treated? We can all as well be a medical doctor but who will teach us?.
