ABS4040:
Nigerian youth should respond to the government killing of protesters by assassinating the presidency kids. All hand on deck

AAA593:
Some who have refused to be schooled but are all round commentators on issues they've got little or no knowledge on, keep making this statement: "How can ASUU be dictating to his employer on how he should be paid? I trust Buhari will deal with them."

Congratulations and Weldone! Buhari is really dealing with them. Meanwhile, this is what Nigerian law says;

"The Universities (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Amendment) Act 2003 (otherwise called the Universities Autonomy Act No. 1, 2007) enacted by the National Assembly and signed into law on 10th July 2003 and later gazetted by the Federal Republic of Nigerian Official Gazette No. 10, Volume 94 of 12th January 2007 as Act No. 1 of 2000, has vested the powers of managing personnel and payroll system issues in the hands of each university’s governing council".

Has this Act been repealed by Buhari's government and replaced with "OAGF is vested with the power to manage the payroll of all public universities through IPPIS"?

Lets set our emotions, loyalty and interest aside and behave like educated people. Presidents will come and go, and Nigeria will remain.

Your last sentence vividly capture the mind of the government! Anyway, I leave that for the Nigerians to decide.

Just think about it, why's the standard dropping? You think it's because of their strikes! C'mon, it takes someone who has been exposed to what education is outside Nigeria and what is obtainable in Nigeria to understand the gravity of what's on the ground. Probably you think it's just about dishing out graduates every year and just acquiring certificates!

luminouz:
You have a grouse with ASUU. Nothing anyone says would make any difference to you

Have a nice life

daphil:
Well, I don't need to argue with you over this matter. I will rather advice ASUU to fight for their rights and only their rights!

daphil:
Seriously, you must be a slow learner! Must you publicly display your ignorance? Have you taken time to know what the agitations are all about? Who told you IPPIS is the main bone of contention. IPPIS is a global problem, not peculiar to them alone. You will need to educate yourself about their main agitation with the government in order for you to make an informed contribution!

I wonder why ASUU is even fighting for the revitalization of the Nigerian universities system instead of fighting for their pockets like medical doctors are doing!

The implication of a comment like yours is that Nigeria is not worth fighting for.

luminouz:
Is IPPIS is so golden,why are NASUU,SSANU and others against it?

They kicked against it because it wasn't working.

Your hatred for ASUU is glaringly obvious and I wonder why.

Have a nice day.

[s]E pele, Mr. Ignoramus with small English. Internet-savvy bunkum? Geez. Must you wield words bigger than you? For your information, my usage is very apt. Here's one definition: an ignorant or stupid person. Have you not shown yourself to be ignorant? Even when a teacher offered to show you evidence to the contrary, you would rather wallow in your ignorance. Says a lot about what sort of student you must have been.

ASUU selfish my foot. TETFund (ETF) was ASUU's idea. Today it is what sustains not just universities but also polytechnics. It is what has allowed the construction of scores of facilities used by students around the country . Non-teaching staff are trained and funded from it. All of these based on the struggle of the same ASUU that twits like you label selfish.

What you need to realize is that the baying of people like you is meaningless, apart from being a source of mild annoyance. You can change nothing, froth as you may. Abacha, Babangida, Obasanjo, they all bowed to ASUU. The present government will too, so don't get your bp raised for nothing

[s]Embrace your yoruba muslim heritage Mr Man and stop deceiving your skull about being a 'detribalized' Christian. You are not very smart in undercover identity theft. [/s]

luminouz:
Damn, you read but didn't understand.

ASUU developed the platform and offered it free to FG,unlike IPPIS that is foreign and still take away our foreign exchange.

Integrity test is assured. ASUU won't have offered it otherwise.

HAccord:
[s]You can continue to deceive yourself about being objective and non-tribal. Within you, your conscience will remain your mirror. Most your previous are aimed at insulting a particular tribe, yet you claim to be 'detribalized'? Bollocks!

Let me tell you who you since you ashamed of embracing your shiit-eating tribe and religion. You are a yoruba muslim through and through, deceiving himself with christian names like 'Maxwell'.

Enjoy your shiit-eating business. Regards[/s]

sinkhole:
You did not get the point!
Lecturers who are assiduously working to find solution to problems, are members of ASUU and their results is to the credit of ASUU but ASUU in itself is NOT a research body meant to proffer solution to national problems. A research by any ASUU member will not be ascribed to ASUU but to the University that the member belongs.
The UTAS that ASUU is bringing forward may have been developed by ASUU members but ASUU still paid them for the development.
ASUU is a union and not a research body

sinkhole:
Well, everybody have right to their opinion!
ASUU said they had originally opposed the introduction of IPPIS from the begining, and that was a long time ago.
ASUU has laid out the problems IPPIS, how it is incompatible with their structure, and they are offering alternative so as to help the government.
ASUU is a union meant to cater for certain group of people, they are not a national union for all Nigerians. They need to talk if they think the right of their members are not being respected. ASUU do not need to proffer solution to Nigerian problems.
Mind you, the oil workers rejected IPPIS and went on strike for like three or so days and quickly government called them back and they insisted on being paid with GIFMIS, government agreed and GIFMIS was reactivated for them immediately without them bringing any alternative like ASUU!

proffemi:
You guys should stop asking this question. It only shows you're oblivious of current affairs.

Just the most recent example : https://ace.aau.org/ace-1-centers/acegid/
They (and other Nigerian collaborators) were the first in Africa to sequence the NCOV-SARS2 virus. The same Africa that contains South Africa, home to the continent's best universities! They have also indicated that they are capable of producing a vaccine if properly funded.

The lesson for you is this: the Center is funded by the World Bank and not FG. Do you think it is a coincidence that we suddenly start having world-class contributions when adequate funding was provided? Isn't this what ASUU has been singing to people like you and the FG for years?

Sidon there dey ask JAMB question.

sinkhole:
Are they not currently subjecting it to the integrity test? And who says the UTAS costs nothing? ASUU is only offering it to government free of charge after developing it with their own money (in millions of naira)!
Can't Bill offer windows OS, free of charge to any government if they so wish? How much does Linux OS cost the users? Does that mean Linux is useless?

HAccord:
It matters, even though you'll like to deny.


I am a proud Igbo man, why are you ashamed to mention your tribe, does your tribesmen eat excreta? What tribe do you belong? Be proud to tell us what God created you to be, before Lugard created Nigeria.

HAccord:
Where do you come from and what tribe do you belong?

After 30 days when the UN intervenes, we will see if you can't go beyond what you've done. Awon oloshi.
