ASUU STRIKE WILL LAST
2 MORE YEARS..
And Why ASUU 2009
agreement MUST Not Be
Honoured By Govt.
**ASUU are asking for
elongation of their
maternity leave, housing
loan, sick leave, injury
pension, vehicle loan,
car refurbishing loan,
allocation of University
lands to members.....
It is now apparent that
ASUU leadership, not
their members do not
want to go back to
classes after the
government has
released N200 billion for
infrastructures and
N130billion for their
undeserving bonuses
and allowances.
Extract from their
meeting with Senators
(close Door).
ASUU: “The lecturers
were asking for
maternity leave, housing
loan, sick leave, injury
pension, vehicle loan/
car refurbishing loan,
postgraduate supervision
allowance, teaching
practice/ industrial
supervision/ field trip
allowances and
honoraria for external
moderation of
undergraduate and
postgraduate
examinations.”
“Other demands
included postgraduate
study grants, staff
schools, and compulsory
retirement age”.
ASUU demanded that
landed properties
around their Universities
should be allotted to
their members as part of
employment benefits.
In all, ASUU demanded
for a whopping N1.5
trillion expected to be
paid within three years
of 2009 to 2011. (about
34% of the entire
nation's financial
budget, capital and
recurrent)
Senator Sola Adeyeye, a
former lecturer, asked
ASUU during their
meeting: “is there any
Nation where any of
such allowances is paid
according to
international standard?
A typical teacher
teaches two courses in a
semester for three hours
a week. You are paid
salaries, why should you
be paid again for these
other things? Where in
the world are lecturers
paid examination
allowances? Where is a
professor paid
allowances for
supervising postgraduate
students? Why is he a
professor in the first
place?”
“What you cannot ask
for in other spheres
ought not be asked for
here,” he added. “The
standard practice in the
United States is that if
you go on sabbatical,
you ‘ll be paid for six
months; if you spend
more than that, you
have to fund it yourself.
Where in the world do
you say the Federal
Government should be
involved in the funding
of state universities?”
ASUU took advantage of
the ignorance of those
who were sent and
simply just allowed this
agreement to go on
because it is obvious
that this is going to be a
very difficult piece of
paper to implement. -
Senate President, David
Mark added.
From 2009 to 2011,
ASUU want N1.5 trillion
and 2011 to 2013
another N1.5 trillion,
totaling N3.0 trillion
(over 78% of Nigerian
budget).
According David Mark,
we should blame those
that signed this
agreement in the first
place. In other way,
looking at it in broader
perspective, we need
not to blamed them
that much. We should
blame Nigerians and
their impatience. We
should blame Nigerians
who are always in the
habit of putting 'fire on
the government' any
time any group is
threatening for strike,
without looking at the
issues objectively. That
means that, government
representatives always
sign agreements under
duress and for peace to
reign and to please the
masses.
Lastly, on this N3.0
trillion demand by
ASUU, did anyone see
where they mentioned
improving learning
conditions? ASUU's
agreement NEVER
mention that we need
to build more hostels,
lecture theaters,
laboratories, Libraries,
classrooms, cafeterias,
improved transportation
system for out-of-
campus students. It is all
about ASUU, ASUU and
ASUU. How on earth will
ASUU ask for bonuses
for producing graduates
that employers of labour
always brand
unemployable?
ASUU leaders should tell
Nigerians why all their
negotiations of late, are
done behind close
doors, if truly, University
infrastructures are their
sole aim of embarking
on the current strike?

It is not longer a news
anymore of the Mysterious
writings across
the continents...an unexplainable
hashtags have appeared as well as
undecipherable cryptic codes and
hieroglyphs the hashtags simply
says
"WINNER TAKES EARTH"....the first
place it
appeared was on Rio de janeiro's
world
famous sugarloaf mountain in
Brazil, South
america, then it also appeared at
Hackney
marshes London,England, Europe
nd again
it appeared at d New york city
times
square in the USA,North
America...since
then scientist and other gurus of
the world
have been trying to read meaning
to
these mysterious thing... On the
26th of
October in Germany in a football
match
between Bayern Munich and
Hertha Berlin
another mysterious thing
happened and
this time some people have been
suggesting or rather insinuating on
what
those mysterious sign might
mean....It was
observe that some strange looking
people
numbering eleven in number nd
wore
blacks through out from their head
to toe
with a drawing of a triangle on
their
foreheads and the inscription of
the word
"WINNERS TAKE EARTH" on their
chest
were seen watching the ball
between
Bayern munich and Hertha
berlin...they
were seen doing the same thing
simultaneously standing up at the
same
time and waving at the same
time, it also
should be noted that neither the
Bayern
Munich nor Hertha Berlin team
wore black
as a jersey..so those creatures
ain't
supporting neither teams....After
the
match those eleven creature were
nowhere to be found in or around
the
stadia and a soothsayer in China
regarded
as Chinese lantarn said and i
quote......This creatures and all
those
mystrious writing may be likened
to UFO
{Unaddentified flying Objects}
which in a
layman saying are known as
ALIENS.... this
isn't d first time of hearing about
aliens ,
some americans have yet seen
them
before so according to the man it
may be
probably these creatures wants to
take
over the Earth and the only
medium is a
football match between the Earth
and the
Aliens, The man further said that
those
Eleven creature seen in Germany
were
the Eleven players of the
alliens...the
issue now is for the Earth to
present their
own first eleven becoz sooner than
later
the match btw the Aliens and the
Earth
will take place and the Winner
takes the
Earth.........my first eleven to face
the
Aliens are : Neur,Lahm,Thiago
silva,
Hummels, Alaba , Toure Yaya,
Ribery,
Rooney, C.Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic,

ASUU Rejects N600b Offer
Varsity teachers remained adamant
last night, saying their strike would
go on, despite the government’s
shifting of its position. The strike
has been on for four months.
More cash has been pledged for
projects on the campuses.
Besides, the earned allowances
due to the teachers have been
increased from the initial N30
billion offer, which the Academic
Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)
rejected. The teachers are
insisting on the 2009 agreement,
which they say President Goodluck
Jonathan was part of.
Besides, they say, they do not
trust the government.
According to a circular by the Vice
Chancellor of the Federal
University, Otuoke, Bayelsa State,
Prof. Bolaji Aluko, to the staff of
the school, quoted yesterday by
the news website, Sahara
Reporters, the government has
pledged to spend N200 billion on
the universities in the 2014
budget and the same amount
annually for the next three to four
years.
This is in addition to the N100
billion already made available this
year, but which ASUU has
rejected.
The government has also increased
to N40 billion, as a first
installment, funds for the payment
of earned allowances to the
striking lecturers – an
improvement from the N30 billion
previously released.
On the earned allowances, Aluko
said:
“Government will top it up with
further
releases once universities are
through with the disbursement of
this new figure of N40 million. So,
Vice-Chancellors are urged to
expedite this disbursement within
the shortest possible time using
guiding templates that have been
sent by the CVC,”
the circular said.
Aluko said the latest development
followed meetings on September
19 and Oct 11 of representatives
of the Association of Vice-
Chancellors of Nigerian
Universities, led by its
Chairman, Prof. Hamisu of
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University
(ATBU) and ASUU representatives
led by its President, Dr.Nasir
Fagge, with Vice-President Namadi
Sambo and Minister of Education
Nyesome Wike.
A source in the Ministry of
Education last night also confirmed
that the meeting too place.
“But the government decided to
leave the announcement of the
decision to the ASUU chiefs,” the
source said.
It was gathered that Sambo urged
ASUU to call off the strike, as he
apologised for the “take-it-or-lea
ve-it” comments credited to
Minister of Finance Dr. Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala at
the beginning of the strike. The
Minister did not seem to have
been involved in either meeting,
perhaps as the government’s way
of soothing the feelings of the
university teachers.
Other points of agreement at the
meetings include:
•Project Prioritisation: Universities
will now be allowed to determine
their priorities and not be “rail-
roaded” into implementing a pre-
determined set of projects with
respect to the NEEDS assessment.
Decisions are not to be
centralized;
•TETFund Intervention: The
government assured the teachers
that the operations of the TETFund
will not be impaired, and that the
regular TETFund intervention
disbursement to universities will
continue, unaffected. So the
NEEDS assessment capital outlays
are in addition to regular TETFund
intervention;
•Project Monitoring: A new
Implementation Monitoring
Committee (IMC) for the NEEDS
Assessment intervention for
universities has been set up to
take over from the Suswam
Committee. The new one is under
the Federal Ministry of Education
and chaired by the Minister of
Education. In addition, to build
confidence and ensure faithful
implementation and prevent any
relapse as before, the Vice
President will meet quarterly
with the implementors to monitor
progress.
.Blueprint: ASUU was mandated to
submit a blueprint for revitalising
the universities to the Vice
President.
Prof. Aluko stated that a signed
document will soon be issued to
itemise the full issues on which
the consensus was reached.
But ASUU last night was
unimpressed with the new offer.
National Treasurer Dr. Ademola
Aremu said the offer failed to
meet the teachers’ expectations.
He said the offer falls short of the
agreement signed with ASUU by
the government.
Aremu insisted that ASUU would
not end the strike until the 2009
agreement is fully implemented by
injecting N500 billion into the
universities yearly to shore up the
system’s quality.
Aremu, who spoke to our
correspondent on the telephone,
said any offer below what is
contained in the signed
agreement, would amount to
unilateral repudiation of an
agreement the government
willingly signed in 2009.
According to the unionist, ASUU is
not
making any new demand, but a
mere
implementation of an agreement.
He pointed out that the
Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) signed by both parties in
2009 stated that the government
would commit N1.5 trillion to the
system in three years.
He said: “ Even if the Federal
Government made that promise, it
would be a unilateral repudiation
of the 2009 agreement. By now,
the government should have
injected N500 billion. That
amounts to N100 billion in 2012
and N400 billion in the current
year.
“As a matter of fact, any new
commitment from the Federal
Government is belated.
Implementation of the agreement
ought to have started before this
year. I don’t think there is any way
we can trust this government,
going by its past behaviour on this
issue.
“The mandate from our principal
as at the last time we met was
that we won’t end the strike until
the agreement is fully
implemented.
“We do not need promises again.
What we need now is actual
implementation. What if they do
not release the funds again after
making the promise?
“It was this same Mr President
that mid-wifed the agreement in
2009 when he was the Vice
President. The MoU was in his
custody. He studied the agreement
well before asking
then President Umaru Yar’Adua to
sign it. We can’t trust this
government.
