The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has described alleged disobedience of President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration to laws of the land as the greatest corruption. The union spoke on the latest directive by the Federal Government that her officials will move to campuses to begin enrolment of university workers on the Integrated Personnel Payroll and Information System (IPPIS).

ASUU, while reacting through its University of Ibadan Chairman, Professor Deji Omole, stated that the union cannot be harassed or intimidated by those who have penchant for breaking the law of the land. According to him, breaking existing laws with impunity is the greatest corruption. Omole added that it is worrisome that a government under democracy is afraid of negotiation and dialogue but prefers to use force.

The ASUU boss maintained that the union will use available democratic means to prevent the violation and desecration of the Nigerian University system which the children of the President and top government officials do not find worthy of attending. “The government’s pronouncement to forcefully enrol university workers is an act of violence against the university system. It is worrisome for a government under democratic dispensation to resort to force rather than dialogue.

“If not, why is the government afraid of negotiations. We are not perturbed by the directive. A government claiming to be fighting corruption should not break the law. “The university Autonomy Act is very clear on university administrators. There is no greater corruption than those breaking the law of the land. Breaking of existing laws with impunity is the greatest corruption anywhere in the world; we refused to be harassed or intimidated. “We are not strangers in this country.

We are veritable stakeholders. We cannot be harassed. We have told them what to do. Let the government come back to negotiation’s table and let’s discuss the grey areas. Forceful enlistment will not solve the problem. “We are not disturbed but we are worried, government is getting dictatorial. A supposedly democratic government is getting dictatorial,” Omole said.

ASUU Strike loading...

He is a dictator, get used to it. The past "democratic" Presidents gave you thieves and pedophiles room to loot the treasury through ghost workers and multiple employment. Now, the dictator has come to put an end to your stealing. Comply or vamoose, this dictator won't bend. I stand with Buhari.

I beg, ASUU, go and sit down, do the right things and stop hiding under canopy of dictorship to attract sympathy from educated illiterates in the society. If you know he has bridged the constitution, drag him to court. Buhari, is somebody we need now to turn around the country for good, many people complaining and blaming buhari are either have skeleton in their cupboard, eating from proceed of corruption or born after morality was chased out of the country.

The more you hate Buhari, the more God is blessing him, you can ask all prophets of dooms and ipob members. God never granted their bad wishes against him, where are the ibops that asked for his head, called him Jubril and somebody that can never comeback from his illness?

Where are the likes of politicians that ganged up against him starting from Atiku, Saraki, Sheu sanni, Fayose and many others thinking they will disgrace him and stop him from coming back second time despite Dubai strategy ? They have been relegated politically. So, ASSU, please, park well, your sector is too corrupt, let Buhari, use APC broom to clean your dirty areas.

ASSU, should stop telling us big grammar that FG is not spending enough in education, ASSU should rather tell us and justify how well they are spending little government is allocating to them with the way they are just recruiting unemployable/yahoo-yahoo and skilless youths from our institutions through lazy and unskillful lecturers exchanging sex for grades


Why will government be wasting money in term of salary on professors and PhD holders who can not transfer useful skills they have acquired over the years during lectures on students that are expected to be leaders of tomorrow just because they are not talented in teaching and transferring of knowledge? Ordinary reaserches they are known for, many of them can't come out with any tangible research except copy and paste of student project and yet, they will blow grammar they are not getting sponsors from organizations as if organizations are working because of them to waste their money. Many organizations are ready to sponsor researches that are tangible and have future

There are many corruption cases going on in academic environment, government needs to take bold steps to sanitize the sector to revive education and makes it more functional. ASSU should allow Buhari to do needful!

who are these two above me

All this ' Cold Room' lecturers with their feeble threats, this is not Jonathan that you people were tossing around like a dice. If Buhari can close all our borders for months without blinking an eye, is it your corrupt sex for marks union that he can not dismantle?

Cold room lecturers indeed!

No be only dictatorial, na "Babcocktorial".

All these corrupt, unpatriotic professors.
I always say that most Nigerian professors are shameless, unpatriotic and without class.

They know what this IPPIS shit will do to their corrupt personalities that's why they are kicking against it.

Those men are too corrupt.


It is only a Nigerian professor that will collect millions from an illiterate politician and sell his conscience and the rights of many people during elections.

All those Resident Electoral Commissioners are just bunch of rubbish.

Buhari this, Buhari that and a 3rd one

Ok. But the Country is sick as a whole. Do we used to take note of FG projects that should have been built some years back like 10yrs ago and they will build it this year and write the year, They were supposed to have built it them? Explanation on this too

Unna no Dy Taya?

ASUU guys know they would be exposed. Bunch of idiots. Carry go Buhari

We are not disturbed but we are worried!





Buhari will change your worrisome to public disturbances, rules are rules ASUU!!! Even, I love to join you sooner

Serious matter. ASUU does not want to be cornered, Government wants to corner ASUU in the name of fight against corruption

Becoming? ASUU is not serious , The man is a full fledged Dictator ..But what is ASUU hiding in it's payroll that it doesn't want the govt to see ? As long as the govt pays their salaries they must comply with the verification because we need to know how many people we are paying

ASUU! DO THE RIGHT THING.

SENTIMENTS ASIDE, IPPIS IS WORTH IT.

IF YOU HAVE NO SKELETONS IN YOUR CUPBOARDS, THEN STOP WAILING.

ASUU IS AN INDEPENDENT BODY MY FOOT.

MOST NIGERIAN LECTURERS ARE THIEVES!

Interesting

ASUU... The known striking lecturers

Always fighting for their own pockets not the development of our educational sector .

Cold room lecturers dem

Why won't you stand with him? I don't have words for you. You're here supporting a dictator who can't even obey court order. One day, that breeze go blow reach your side

....

since when? u just know ni

ASUU cannot have it both ways.

Either they are self funded to be fully independent.

Or they join the salary payment platform so that the Federal Government will not be wasting money paying ghost workers and other corrupt practises in ASUU.

They are not serious at all.. Kwurrupt elements!!

ASUU or whatever you call urself, I'm with PMB on this. Nigerians support any government program that engender accountability in whatever form.

I wonder what you guys are hiding that you are refusing to join ippis.

Profs writing INEC results. Enjoy yourself.

Tele nko.....shey una ni sabi before u vote him in ni. Most of ASUU staff were there during his first stint as head of state of this country, they knew his pros and cons and still voted him in anyways. Now every one is wailing when we ain't even halfway into his tenure.

ASUU good morning oo. You just woke up right? How was your night? Foolish people.

Buhari has been a dictator since 1983

ASUU Stop complaining,you guys have messed up the whole academic system.A female friend of mine told me some days ago dat she went to her lecturer office and the next thing that came out from the idiots mouth was that she should kiss him,that he's been admiring her a long time. You can imagine how these bunch of old empty fellows have lost their dignity and self respect all because they can't control their penis.

;DVD


Don't ask me what it means.


Meanwhile why is that most folks on Nairaland think they know it all and believe their opinion(s) supersedes other's?
