The ex-minister of education is the main cause to these problems. Ruqayyatu Rufai should be arrested. She should be questioned to give account of what she's stolen. All these Jonathan's goons will finish Nigeria. There's massive looting in every sector of the economy. No wonder Nigerians are more divided than ever.

rhema4u: With all the strikers everywhere, hope Nigeria will defeat Ethiopia............

Bros, u cudnt have said it better. But when is Nairaland striking?

Let them join the strike and let me see how Gej and his cohorts will celebrate Independence on Tuesday with strike everywhere. He's cluelessly busy holding meetings with his pdp against 2015 leaving the pressing issues to ridicule. I see no changes in Nigeria in the next 50yrs in things continue this way. Smh!

Insincere Nigerian, where u dey, come defend ur paymaster

The correct information on this matter is that Nigeria is broke as earlier said by the minister of finance. The governors have been complaining of non payment of government subventions for the past 2 months. Mst of them used their savings. The universities that paid salaries used IGR with the hope government will pay before the subsequent month. Now, its all full stop as they can no longer pay another September salary.

Why is the government reducing what is to be shared from the federal allocation, which is creating ripple effect in states and some federal paralstatals? I hope it is not the aggressive looting for 2015 that's going on? Where is Maku, Okupe or Abati ? Is there no explanation for this nonsense or are they all in Newyork? We all await another lie on independence day. It is well Nigerians.

i think that the govt should stop all these unnecessary attempt to ridicule the ASUU and just cede to their demands....now their counter part want to embark on a strike...sometimes i wonder what they do there in Abuja...its not like we are feeling the dividends of this democracy......what is all this .....

For 3 months now it has been raining and thunder never striked only dt ASUU is doing d striking for thunder, with NASU nd SSANU threatening to join d strike next week I can only hope dt one day it shall be well. They say sometimes it gets worst before it gets better, am praying it doesn't get worse Dan dis before something positive is done. In other news Uniport continued releasing admission lists with registration in progress nd acceptance fee tripled...

nigeria broke?? i beg to disagree, other MDA'S have been paid salary since 23rd of this month, its only the university workers that haven't received anything since july ending, this is a move to force university unions against ASUU which has not yielded any fruit so far... It's true some universities used IGR to settle August salary-my VC was summoned to Abuja to explain how he was able to pay salary for August just some 3 weeks ago. This FG had better stop all this rubbish and settle this issues once and for all instead of using useless tactics in turning university unions against each other.

this is serious o

sirugos: This bunch of useless people should go and sit down. Just a month salary and they re shouting like a baby goat.... Politically motivated

they've gat to understand that if not tackled now, latter will be a problem.

Wen u have a Retard governing you what else do you expect

uceee: This would be comic if it was a movie. But it is a real and very unfortunate turn of events. Privatization is the way out.

It seems you don't understand the mumbled cataclysmic effect of privatising the educational sector. Let me tell you just one :- You can't protest when fees are increased no matter the level? Or can't you peep from what is happenning in private Unis?

SSANU and NASU are both bunch of non-reasoning ppl. Just august salary,nd u're cmplaining. Wat of dos they have nt paid since june nkor? Nd u knw schools re on strike. So,i c no reason to waste money in paying u ppl while we're still at home. Go on strike jow. I dnt c hw it wil afect us. Na una go folo hungry. #SMH. Education is d key my A$$#

Z high tym 4 me 2 strike. I no sure say Jesus go even fit rule 9ja.

estyvino: They should be paid, cos they 've worked for it. Otherwise, Eegoo be double wahala...

Worked for it when?
~
Let the old fools site @ home since they are not lecturing any student or r they lecturing an empty classrooms?
~

I guess u r not a student or better still I guess the SSANU are teaching U privately @home. They are the genesis of this problem (where on earth can a prof still be in active service @ the age of 70yrs) now they are calling for salary when they are not discharging their duties. Let them sit @home cos they av not been working. I am quite sure their children are either in Private Unis or studying abroad so they felt not really concerned with the ongoing strike by their sister body only for them to be clamouring for salaries when their children r @ the edge of being push out of class due to no payment of the sch fees. I think let us all av a pinch of the current situation @hand and we all find a lasting solution to the problem.
~
By the way I am not spearing FG out of this, they are the chief farmer of this rot in our academic institutions, we the student should equally find away to convey our grievances on them and their children studying either abroad or in Private Unis.

Lastly, No work No pay.

In celine dion's voice;"This is getting serious,are u thinking about you or us..."

But wait o, why will all these unions want to embark on industrial action at the same time?
I really think some are politically motivated.

Abeg o, i no wan miss batch A service next yr o

Every sector in the educational system are going on strike or threatening to go on strike,and our dear president is not just reacting to it at all. Since he sack the formal education minister, we have not heard anything from him. Someone should remind this man that education is the best tool to his 2nd term ambition.
The security is pumping money into don't need money,they politicians know themselves and those behind the insecurity.
Without education,president jonathan should kick 2o15 ambition good bye

una know where the thing dey pain me? Na say most nigerians go still collect money directly or indirectly from GEJ to vote am for 2015. May God help those long throats. Amen.

Nigerian Independence day celebration beckons!!! Thingz are falling apart...

For GEJ's efforts in the educational sector, am voting him in 2015, all well meaning Nigerians to vote for him too.
GEJ progress!!!!
