| Education › ASUU Strike: Presidential Primaries Can’t Hold In Abuja, NANS Declares by Voldoz(op): 4:08pm On May 01, 2022*. Modified: 5:49pm On May 01, 2022 |
The National Association of Nigerian Students on Sunday declared that no political party will hold a convention to select any presidential candidate in Abuja. Sunday PUNCH had reported that the Peoples Democratic Party picked the Federal Capital Territory for its May Convention to select its presidential candidate amid 15 aspirants from all over the country. The ruling All Progressives Congress is also reported to have considered Abuja for its presidential primary later this month. However, NANS, in its statement, told the political parties to either end the strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities since February 14, 2022, or forget about holding any presidential primary in the nation’s capital. The apex students’ union body also expressed anger that those saddled to ensure the smooth running of the education sector including Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba; and Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige; have picked up the outrageous N100m presidential forms of the ruling APC. In the statement titled, ‘End ASUU Strike Or Forget Political Activities In Abuja’, the NANS president said, “We have also in the past weeks seen those saddled with great responsibility in the education sector and those saddled with responsibilities of resolving labour crises declaring interest to contest for the seat of the President come 2023. “We are surprised by their effrontery and total disrespect to the Nigerian people for having the courage to even mute the idea of contesting talkless of picking up the 100million naira presidential form while students languish at home because of their collective failures. “Politicians have shown no concern to the plight of the students but are only busy in their selfish and inordinate ambitions to become the next President. “Let me say without mincing words, the two major political parties should forget any political gathering in Abuja who elsewhere except there is a solution to the lingering ASUU strike. “We will frustrate all the activities leading to the selection of party candidates if we remain on strike. We also want to advise the government and the politicians who are busy campaigning to be President to either resolve the ASUU crises or give direct orders to the security operative to shoot us at the site during party conventions to select a presidential candidate. If we remain on strike, they should just forget it.” ASUU, on March 14, at the expiration of its four-week warning strike which it declared on Monday, February 14, had extended the industrial action by two months. The union led by Professor Emmanuel Osodeke said it made the decision to extend the strike so as to give the Federal Government and its agencies enough time to meet the lingering demands of the union. The union had embarked on a nine-month strike in 2020 before it was called off in December of that year.

No one really cares about the strike even ASUU no one wants to make the move. If ASUU are really serious they would have collaborate with NANS to carry out mass protest (who knows, they might end up killing protesters just like Lekki toll gate incidents).

| Education › Labour Day: Lawan Seeks ‘speedy’ End To ASUU Strike by Voldoz(op): 9:21am On May 01, 2022 |
Senate President Ahmad Lawan on Saturday called for a speedy and amicable resolution to the months-old Academic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU) strike. He made the call in a statement celebrating Nigerian workers on the occasion of this year’s May Day. The statement was signed by his spokesperson Ola Awoniyi. “Nigerian workers deserve our appreciations and respects for their contributions to the development of our country,” Lawan said. “I also salute them for their patriotic cooperation with the government and and other institutions in the collective efforts to address societal challenges. “There is no gainsaying the fact that Labour creates wealth for the nation, the more reason that the welfare of the Nigerian workers should always be accorded priority. “As Parliament, the National Assembly will continue to partner with the Organised Labour in addressing issues that affect workers and the generality of the Nigerian people. “Despite the prevailing challenges, the relationship between Labour and the Government should be cooperative in the overall interest of the country. “In the spirit of May Day, I appeal for a speedy and amicable resolution of the ongoing negotiations between the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU) to ensure that our universities reopen for learning and research. “We should always be mindful that no society can make meaningful progress without industrial peace and harmony. “Once again, I say congratulations to all Nigerian workers and wish them a happy May Day.” On March 14, the union extended the industrial action by another two months to allow the government meet all of its demands. The academics are seeking improved welfare, revitalisation of public universities and academic autonomy among other demands. One bone of contention for the academics is the non-payment of university revitalisation funds, which amounts to about N1.1 trillion. But the Federal Government has said it doesn’t have the money to pay such an amount, citing low oil prices during the Muhammadu Buhari administration. The agreement was reportedly struck in 2009. Another is the issue of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS). The academics have proposed an alternative payroll system, the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS).

| Crime › MTN Is Killing Me Here (have You Experienced It) by Voldoz(op): 6:38pm On Apr 29, 2022 |
Good day Nairalanders!!! Please has any of you took notice of this? I was down on data, I usually buy from bank with ussd but unfortunately I wasn't with my other device that carries my banking line and I wasn't with physical cash. So since it's urgent I decided to borrow from MTN atleast N100 data so when I get home I would pay back and top up, after inputting *606# my data offer was for 2000, 1000, etc so I decided to input the number that indicates next inorder to find my Desired plan it wasn't still there yet so I input the next again to my greatest surprised mtn automatically gave me N500(500+ including their service charge) which I didn't bargained for. It may seemed I made a mistake in my input but I can surely tell you this wasn't the first time they have done this to me. I don't know if it's a bug in their system or they purposely did it but from all angles it's bad and I don't like it. Please pardon my write up, I might have made some grammatical errors. Thank you |
| Education › ASUU Cannot Dictate Payment Platform For Their Salaries – Nwajiuba by Voldoz(op): 4:37pm On Apr 28, 2022 |
The Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba, has said the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) cannot dictate to the Federal Government what platform to be used in paying their salaries. He stated this in Abuja while addressing journalists shortly after receiving his presidential Nomination Form of the All Progressives Congress (APC) purchased for him by the Project Nigeria Group. “It is impractical and incongruous to continuously expect that somebody who is paid a salary continues to dictate to the someone who pays him: ‘This is how you must pay me’. This is where this anomaly is,” the minister said. Mr Nwajiuba also appealed to the striking lecturers to return to the classroom as the Federal Government is working to address some of their concerns. “We have pleaded with ASUU that ‘If there any areas where your salaries fall short, kindly address them within the ambit of IPPIS because that’s what the government has now,'” the presidential hopeful explained. According to him, the strike embarked upon by ASUU was uncalled for, and expressed worry over the impact of the union’s action on the education of Nigerian students. “Why they have chosen to go on strike over this (IPPIS) is what you and I can explain. There is nothing that ASUU wants that we have not agreed to. We would like them to go back to classes so that students can go back to class,” Nwajiuba added. “As the nation earns, we pay them. As the nation makes money, they would get money. What we don’t want is for the children to miss the opportunity of their own time because there is a timeframe within which children must grow. The child cannot wait. It is important that ASUU returns to class.” The minister’s comment adds to the continued debates over the payment systems for lecturers in public universities across the country. While the union says its University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS) should be used for payment, the Federal Government maintains that the payment system has not met its technical requirements. But ASUU, which down tools over two months ago, believes the government is paying lip service to the lecturers’ agitation. According to the union’s president, Emmanuel Osodeke, the government’s budgeting of N4trn for subsidy payment is an indication that it is not ready to resolve the crisis. “You can raise N4 trillion for fuel subsidy in a year, but you cannot raise N200 billion to fund your education because you don’t have money; it is a priority,” he told Channels Television when he featured on Sunrise Daily last week. “You can spend N228 billion to feed children in primary and secondary schools, but you cannot raise N200 billion to fund your universities; it is an issue of priority, that is the problem.” ASUU, among others, is fighting for increased funding for public schools as well as the usage of UTAS to pay the lecturers’ salaries. https://www.channelstv.com/2022/04/28/ASUU-cannot-dictate-payment-platform-for-their-salaries-nwajiuba/ |

| Education › NLC Seeks FG Intervention In ASUU Strike by Voldoz(op): 6:16am On Apr 28, 2022 |
Ayuba Wabba The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has called on the Federal Government to address issues that necessitated the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU) and other unions in tertiary institutions. President of NLC, Ayuba Wabba, made the call when he addressed newsmen shortly before going into a closed door meeting of the Congress’s Central Working Committee (CWC) on Wednesday in Abuja. Recall that ASUU embarked on a nationwide warning strike to press home its members’ demands from Feb. 14. The lecturers’ demands include; funding of the Revitalisation of Public Universities, Earned Academic Allowances, University Transparency Accountability Solution (UTAS) and promotion arrears. Others are the renegotiation of 2009 ASUU-FG Agreement and the inconsistency in Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System (IPPIS). Wabba said the call was imperative in the interest of the Nigerian children who are from poor homes. “In Nigeria today, we are facing a period of great injustice on the downtrodden of the society, the worse of it is that for more than three months, the children of the poor are actually at home and this is not acceptable. “But instead of the politicians to look at the issues as a national disaster, they are discussing politics that is why there can never be equity and justice in such a system. “As you are aware, we have communicated what we think that would be able to resolve the issue with government. “Till date, we are yet to receive any formal information of any effort being made by them to look at that recommendation, we made to them,’’ he said. On the upcoming political dispensation in the country, Wabba called on union leaders to defend democracy and rights of the working class. According to him, this time around, with what has happened with a lot of broken promises, I do not think any worker or union leader will actually sit down and watch. “It is not a time to watch, because it is the political decision that will put food on your table, so therefore sitting down and wait or watch certainly will not be our portion. “Every Nigerian worker must be active to use our “charter of demand’’ to engage the politicians. “We must try also to make sure that the agenda of the working class, the poor and the downtrodden finds space to be accommodated even in the political process,’’ he said. The NLC president further said the CWC meeting would look at the next step to take if the government fail to respond to its recommendation on resolving the ongoing strike by unions in the tertiary institutions. He also said the CWC would also look at key issues of the economy, major roles to bring about peace and respect to the sanity of collective bargaining in the education sector, among others. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/04/nlc-seeks-fg-intervention-in-ASUU-strike/

| Education › ASUU Strike: Lecturers Making Negotiation Difficult –ngige by Voldoz(op): 1:39pm On Apr 27, 2022 |
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Sen. Chris Ngige has blamed the Academic Staff Union of Universities for prolonging the strike in the country. The minister said the union had made negotiation difficult for both parties. Ngige disclosed this in a statement issued by Acting Head of Press and Public Relations, Patience Onuobia, in the ministry on Tuesday. The minister was reacting to the insinuations that he was responsible for the ongoing action by the union. Ngige however, said he had done what many could not do to forestall strikes by ASUU. According to him, negotiation now is being made impossible by ASUU. “For example, ASUU insists that the National Information and Technology Development Agency should take the payment platform, University Transparency Accountability Solution that it developed. “That they should deploy it for payment in the university whether it is good or bad, whether it failed integrity and vulnerability test or not. “ASUU members know that fraud committed on payment platforms can run into billions. If a hacker adds zeros to hundreds, it becomes billions,’’ he said. Ngige noted that NITDA brought out the report of its test on UTAS, noting that it passed the user acceptability but failed vulnerability and integrity tests which were the two critical tests that prevented fraud. “As a conciliator, I spoke to ASUU and NITDA to continue the test and see whether they could make up the lapses and arrive at 100 per cent because that is what NITDA insists on,” he said. “NITDA said they cannot even take the platform at 99.9 per cent of vulnerability and integrity. That they can’t take that risk on a payment system, that it can be hacked into. “These are the issues. So if you hear someone saying Ngige is responsible, it is wrong. I’m not the one that implements it. I’m the conciliator. “I conciliate so that there will be no more warfare and even in conciliation, once I apprehend, the parties go back to status quo ante- which means, you call off the strike. “ASUU should have by now called off the strike because that’s what the law says. “I have earlier, while we convened the National Labour Advisory Council in Lagos last month, urged the NLC to which ASUU is affiliated, to intervene in this respect,” Ngige said. He also revealed that Prof. Nimi Briggs Committee on Renegotiation of 2009 Agreement which ASUU shunned despite several appeals to them had rounded off its assignment and submitted it to the Ministry of Education. He added that “we will follow it from there. There is a bright light at the end of the tunnel”. The minister, however, noted that he had successfully conciliated 1,683 industrial disputes since his assumption of office in 2015. He said that the role of the Minister of Labour was to conciliate disputes and did not include the implementation of agreements reached with parties. “However, when conciliation fails, the Minister is under obligation by sections 9 and 14 of Trade Disputes Act, Cap T8, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria to transmit the results of the negotiation to the Industrial Arbitration Panel or to National Industrial Court of Nigeria. “In the ongoing ASUU imbroglio, I’m the conciliator. I bring them to negotiate with their employers. “That is the Ministry of Education and the National University Commission as well as IPPIS, the office of the Accountant General of the Federation, all under the Ministry of Finance. “At the end of every negotiation, we put down what everybody has agreed on in writing and add timelines for implementation,” he said. The Minister also noted that ASUU strike had been a recurrent decimal in the last 20 years, adding “that they had gone on strike, 16 times. So, there is nothing new as such”. “What is new however is that I have done what Napoleon could not do,’’ he said.

If you follow FG and ASUU you go die aswear. FG their problem everybody know am they no care for the masses at all. As for ASUU, if you think they are fighting for the students you lie I swear you lie, ASUU keep going on strikes at the begin it is Unpaid salaries, next 2 weeks it's UTAS, next 2 weeks again it's 2009 agreement then when they see FG is not answering them they will say the strike is for Revitalization then they will call on Nigerians to combat the government. In as much as what they are doing is good (which is good for them and not the students) the average lecturers suffer from it, some of our lecturers usually boost of being well paid and our handout money is nothing to them but they keep collecting our money imagine I paid 2k for a piece of paper they called report book 2A is better than the shit. To be sincere the way FG is to Nigeria that's how 97% Lecturers is to Students, they feel they are gods among students. I remember in 200L I usually take classes with Electrical, Mechanical, Polymer, Agricultural, Civil, Metallurgical, Petroleum engineering all in one hall no space I swear no space to walk out of the hall self could you believe that after all that Jam packing in exams they will make us sit down 1 to a sit I was like if this is possible why don't we learn like this. Another thing and the most important thing most lecturers can't teach they just read from their handout and tell you to go for tutorial classes or ask you course mates. So for me ASUU themselves need Revitalization. 3 Likes |
