The north wanted power and they have gotten it, and to think they are the least educated and most backward sects in Nigeria. For all those pin heads that voted that gworo man they call president, they will live to see the worst suffering of their lives.
A Northener is a northener, they are extremely illiterate, unitelligent and do not value life and dont have common sense.
Its 1 year in office and Nigerians are experiencing the worst social and financial crises they have ever done with all previous regimes combined since independence. That is the change they voted for and that is the change they are getting. Jonathan will remain the best president Nigeria ever had, its the gworo president that frustrated his office, oya let him come and rule. Clueless thing.
Tomorrow gworo nama man will come and start campaigning for second tenure and his fellow cattle men with still vote.
Blind leading the blind tsk...

You see them silent on Militants, Herdsmen, Bokoharam, corrupt politicians and citizens preaching hate, tribalism and voilence. They just blame the presidency.

We all have a role to play if Nigeria is to be great

paschu:
Bros, wake up, what that guy said IS NOT the obvious truth. You don't get it. What that guy just voiced is the grand scheme of APC. He is only using the ASUU as a shadow to take the heat for the government, stir up public sentiment, and make it seem like APC's socialist ideology is a result of having listened to the so called ASUU intelectuals.

See, this grand scheme to turn nigeria into a socialist state had been on with the APC for ages. This has been going on under-ground for years now - even before APC was formed - and I think this movement is led by folks like Oshimole, Sanusi and Elrufai. Buhari is there just to clear the grounds for them.

Unless pdp takes over power in 2019 then we all are done as long as freedom and INDIVIDUAL prosperity is concerned in this country.

I think APC is out to destroy capital in this country. They want to squeeze the few hardworking individuals in nigeria in order to fund the majority of the lazy bones. That's what they mean by "social welfare"

Wake up guys.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Friday, received a damning verdict from the Academic Staff Union of Universities.




ASUU, at its 19th National Delegates Conference held in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, said Nigerians were yet to experience the much talked-about change Mr. Buhari promised the nation.

The administration has failed the people, ASUU said.

The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, was represented at the event by his Special Adviser, A.B. Baffa.

The president of ASUU, Nasir Isa, while addressing the conference, said, Mr. Buhari was waging a “half-hearted” fight against corruption, and that the poor was getting poorer, while “a tiny club of nouvea riche, treasury looters, phantom contractors, subsidy scammers and rent collectors are flowing in scandalous opulence and manipulating the legal structures of the state to escape.

“One year after, there has been no positive change in the major indices of growth and development, be it poverty reduction, safety and security, disease control or access to basic amenities and public good,” he said.

Mr. Isa said the government appeared to have no direction in its policies, thereby causing Nigerians to be disillusioned with it.

“The disappointment of Nigerians stems from the fact that we have a government whose leadership promised change but which is not practising transformation (deep, fundamental change).

“Democracy in Nigeria is still seen superficially as what leaders do for the people rather than government by the people,” ASUU said.

Mr. Isa, whose tenure as ASUU president comes to an end at the two-day conference, said the Nigerian government has abandoned a socialist welfare state prescribed by the provisions of Chapter Two of the 1999 Constitution, and embraced unfavourable policies handed down by IMF and World Bank.

“As intellectuals, we know the Nigerian condition is a reflection of the conspiracy between African rulers and agents of Bretton Wood Institutions particularly the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank (WB),” Mr. Isa said.

“The conspiracy was consummated in the 1980s when these institutions for the protection and advancement of capitalism, came up with their ‘standard reform package’ now known as the ‘Washington consensus.’

“This package was designed for the African and other underdeveloped economies in order to perpetuate their enslavement to the capitalist world. Many of us would recall General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida’s debate on this ‘consensus’ in 1985/86.

“Even though the Nigerian people overwhelmingly rejected the IMF/WB loan, the Babangida Government still went ahead to implement the key neoliberal prescriptions of devaluation of the Naira and trade liberalisation.

“President Olusegun Obasanjo and his successors from 1999 have unabashedly intensified the implementation of this package through criminal privatisation and commercialisation of public assets, in faithful surrender to the Washington ‘consensus.’

“In all of these, the Nigerian ruling class is unmindful of stiff resistance by the labour movement, civil society groups, the media and other progressive forces in the country. This is much unlike what obtains in other climes such as the Asian Tigers (Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea) who got industrialised without surrendering their economies to the prowling reach of local and foreign marketers of the ‘Washington consensus’,” the union said.

Mr. Isa said ASUU must not relent in working with other progressives to fight for the common good of Nigerians.

He announced that ASUU has donated an initial sum of N20 million to help ameliorate the sufferings of Nigerians displaced from their homes and communities in the North East, due to the insurgency in the region.

He said the amount was in addition to the N5million earlier donated by the union to the National Hospital, Abuja, for medical assistance to the victims of the Nyanya Motor Park bomb blast.

The ASUU president paid glowing tributes to late Eskor Toyo, a revered professor of economics, whom he said was “a great institution on his own right”.




Mr. Isa said of late Toyo: “He was a grand meteor, an economist who attained an unparalleled height in the discipline, a historian’s historian, an unusually endowed political iconoclast who offered himself to the vagaries of life and yet remained a credible spokesperson for the voiceless members of our world, an Africanist, a rare intellectual warrior, a writer who wrote to right the wrongs of his time, an educator who spoke to conscience.”

The Minister of Education, Mr. Adamu, in his goodwill message to the conference, said the Buhari administration was “peerlessly committed to the resuscitation or restoration of the Nigerian Project by confronting the evils of corruption, unemployment, insecurity and indiscipline”.


Mr. Adamu called on ASUU to support his Ministerial Action Plan, which he said was designed to reposition Nigeria’s ailing education sector.

You keep deceiving yourself and lying to yourself that this have not degenerated. You are in a horrible situation. I don't pity you. You think that ASUU man voted for Pdp? What the heck?

Oh yes people were living in heaven before this administration.. going by every reasonable indices.

Look we just have to say the truth. The ASUU chairman said the truth. It is evil to protect a government against those she is governing. The other day Oby ezekwesili spoke, some of you couldn't swallow it. Now this man have spoken, same thing. These are people who worked to enthrone this government.

Haba!!! You think we are fools?

I guess you did not read what was credited to ASUU but rather was perhaps bent on defending your Dullard Daura President.



In school, did your teacher set exam for you termly or yearly? It was termly, why did you think your teacher did that? He did that to know you are still able to continue. The bet is that if you cant remember what you were thought about 3 months ago, how would you remember what you were thought in nine months time?

Your Dullard Buhari is being judged or examined by what he did in 1 year so in essence this is his termly exam result. Got it?
