The summary of the total demands of ASUU goes as thus:

Post graduate supervision allowances; Teaching practice and industrial allowances; honorarium for external moderation of undergraduate and postgraduate examination system, postgraduate study grants; external assessment of readers or professors, Call duty and clinical duty and hazard allowance and excess workload allowance.

Other demands include “non salary condition of service, which includes clinical loan, car refurbishing, housing loan, research leave, sabbatical leave, sick leave, maternity leave, injury pension, provision of office accommodation and facilities, Pension of university academic staff and compulsory retirement age, National Health Insurance Scheme, transfer of landed property, execution of the contract/ projects that the N1.5trn in which the varsities NEEDs intervention fund being demanded for from FG by ASUU is done by ASUU holdings, patronage of university services, funds from alumni associations, private sector contributions, cost saving measures, duty free importation of education materials by universities and setting up research development units by companies operating in Nigeria, and finally, the popular one which my people threw to the general public to gain sympathy, N1.5trn within five years for infrastructure development.

My questions are, if today, FG concur to increase the already released N40billion for the payment of the above allowances to something like N60billion and the strike is suspended, can states such as Ekiti, Kwara, Zamfara, Ebonyi with their meagre allocations, afford to pay all these allowances to the lecturers in theirs universities?

Can Governor Kayode Fayemi afford to pay 20% of these allowances to lecturers in EKSU?
Can Govenor Elechi afford to pay 20% of these allowances to Lecturers in EBSU?

...Another round of strike looming in states-owned Universities! No wonder the Nigerian Governors'Forum has not issued any reasonable statement in relation to the ongoing strike!

God Bless Nigeria!
Happy sunday Nigerians!!!

God bless Nigeria!!!
