ojubi: Sad but that is the bitter truth.
The government never sat in One table with ASUU as partners to draft the said agreement.
During the presidency of YARADUA ASSU single handedly drafted that agreement and forced the government with series of strikes to assent it, which they did due to public out cry to stop the strike then.
But come to think of it ASUU wanting the addition of another 90 billion naira to their recurrent expenditure is crazy, once the fed govt agree to do it the state universities will ask for the same amount and trust me state governments will never be able to pay the money.
If they eventually have their way which i doubt then we should be ready for the worse because the price of school fees will sky rocket and an average Nigerian will not be able to acquire university education.
Workers from other sectors will also come out and tell the government; you raise ASSU budget by 90 billion, we need a raise too which is not healthy for the economy at the moment especially with the oil theft.
So ASSU just need to find a way to lower their expectation.

datChelseaBoy: This ASUU too dey give trouble sef

Brimmie: This is not funny anymore! When i dey check brochure, na 5years dem sey i go use na.. Make una no turn my Industrial Design to Medicine for me!!

mkmyers45:

You dont know what you are saying Mr,

The current commander-in-thief Goodluck Jonathan signed that agreement now....I have a copy. Nobody forced them to do s.hit because the government had a panel that was negotiating on their behalf for 3 full months nah

Dude, the 100 billion they are asking for is not immediate and it is directly tied to infrastructural and equipment grants.

list of ASUU demand

i. Funding requirements for Revitalization of theNigerian Universities
ii. Federal Government Assistance to State Universities
iii. Establishment of NUPEMCO
iv. Progressive increase in Annual Budgetary Allocation to Education to 26% between 2009 and 2020
v. Earned Allowances
vi. Amendment of the Pension/Retirement Age of Academics on the Professorial cadre from 65to 70 years
vii. Reinstatement of prematurely dissolved Governing Councils
viii. Transfer of Federal Government Landed Property to Universities
ix. Setting up of Research Development Counciland Provision of Research Equipment to laboratories and classrooms in our universities.

lincolnj88: 90 billion can create additional job of 3million....dis ASUU is anoda corrupt union...all dis lecturer‘s with i dont care attitude should not be reasoned instead dat money should be used to create job or increased university infrastructure...d school i attended some lecturers do lecture in almost 3 university,d state poly ,and people are looking 4 job den dey will comeout and say dier workload is too much.....we dont call dat workload we call dat greediness and wickedness..::nobody has monopoly of knowledge...ASUU is disgusting....money spoil show if not abroad is much better

lincolnj88: dat was negotiated and agreed by yar adua it started from sept 2008 den it was signed by april 2009 by yar adua led committee, and d 90 billion does not consist of all u mentioned because each fg university are given equipment and infrastructural grant of 2.3 billion naira anually , dis 90 billion is all about dier workloads......

De-Hero:
I've even forgotten that there's strike... I have a lot to cover... let d strike continue for now. Thanks FG.

mkmyers45:

You are not completely sure of what you are saying....If you indeed have the conditions of the agreement drop them here and we confirm it from official sources ok?

Whats the job data for Nigeria with our over 6trl budget in the past 12 months? Give me the name of a factory constructed within the past year that is now actively employing?

lincolnj88: maybe check about d 500 engineers employed in d new power plants....i dnt know of ur region but were i come from honestly speaking dere is improvement in all sectors ...

lincolnj88: i have d conditions but dey are mostly focusing on dier workload and dat workload of 12500 now reduced to 8500 is worth 93.6 billion naira......dier last meeting was dat if dier earned allowance is paid dey will return to d classroom pending d implementation of odas signed in d MOU

Onwe101: ASUU see i must graduate dis yr o! make una just respect unaself...

hillsate: Only an irresponsible government will even contemplate a mutually agreed and signed agreement.

What in God's name is minister of labour trying to say about the agreement being inherited? That's foolish. Government cannot talk about inheriting anything. Government is seen as government. Goodluck was vice president when the agreement was reached and signed. Why don't they refuse loans collected or money piled up in the reserves by predecessors?

We have bunch of non sane persons in govt. I even heard one talking about Nigerians now enjoying 16hrs of light. I guess he means sunlight.

A government that can raise 500 million naira to spend on a 3hrs party is talking about inability to meet ASUU demands.

A government that has budgeted some serious money to buy two additional private jets to add to the existing 8 functional jets is talking about inability to meet ASUU demands.

A government that budgeted 4 billion naira to build a complex for Patience Jonathan in the name of NGO is talking about inability to meet ASUU demands.

What a Nigeria!
