NLC, TUC to mediate in FG, ASUU dispute NOVEMBER 29, 2013 BY FIDELIS SORIWEI 6 Comments President of the NLC, Mr. Abdulwahed Omar | credits: File copy As the face off between the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities took another twist on Thursday, indications have emerged that the organised labour in the country would mediate in the crisis. The Acting Minister of Education, Mr. Nyesom Wike, had ordered ASUU members who had been on strike since July to return to work or risk being fired . However, the National President of the Trade Union Congress, Mr. Bobboi Kaigama, said in a telephone interview with our correspondent that the Nigeria Labour Congress and the TUC would intervene in the crisis. Kaigama and the Acting General Secretary of the NLC, Chris Uyot, had on Tuesday called on the Federal Government to pay the arrears of salaries of the striking lecturers . The TUC president said on Thursday that the organised labour was preoccupied with the resolution of the crisis and would avoid blaming either party involved in the crisis. Kaigama, who said he had held a discussion with his NLC counterpart, Mr. Abdulwahed Omar, on the issue, added that efforts would be made to ensure that the matter was resolved without either side conceding defeat. He said, “Well, we have to intervene in this crisis. I have heard what has happened. The NLC and the TUC would intervene so that the conflict is not worsened. “We don’t want to blame anybody on either side; we just want to do it in such a way that there is no winner, no vanquished. Omar and I have discussed it.” |

ASUU's LETTER TO PRESIDENT JONATHAN Date: 22nd November, 2013 His Excellency, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, The president, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Aso Rock Villa, Abuja. Through: The Supervising Minister, Ministry of Education, Federal Secretariat Complex, Abuja. Your Excellency, RE: RESOLUTIONS REACHED AT THE MEETING BETWEEN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ACADEMIC STAFF UNION OF UNIVERSITIES(ASUU) CHAIRED BY THE PRESIDENT AND ATTENDED BY THE LEADERSHIP OF THE NIGERIA LABOUR CONGRESS(NLC), TRADE UNION CONGRESS (TUC) OF NIGERIA HELD AT THE STATE HOUSE ON 4th NOVEMBER 2013 Please refer to Government's letter with reference number FME/TE/SSIM/CA/99 dated 6th November 2013 and ASUU's letter of 8th of November 2013 on the above subject matter. Your Excellency will possibly recall that the two letters conveyed highlights of discussions at the meeting under reference as captured by Government and ASUU respectively. On the ASUU side, we promised that the two letters would be duly relayed to all branches of our union. ASUU duly fulfilled this promise. In addition, our branches were briefed on the understanding conveyed to ASUU president by your Excellency on th renegotiation of the 2009 Agreement during a telephone conservation of Wednesday, 6th November,2013. This was done to enable our members take an informed decision towards reviewing the ongoing strike action. The positions taken by the branches were collated at the National Executive Council (NEC) meeting held on 22nd November, 2013 at the Bayero University,Kano. On behalf of NEC, I hereby convey the Union's appreciation of the expressed concern of your Excellency to bring an end to the crisis occasioned by the poor implementation of the 2009 Agreement and the 2012 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) arising therefrom through your personal intervention. NEC would have taken a definitive decision on ending the strike, especially in view of your Excellency's intervention, but for certain uncertainties, the clearance of which would have been decisive in making the relevant decision. These uncertainties involve issues on which ASUU members nationwide have strong feelings. They are about certain gaps evident in Government's report as presented to our union. Specifically, our members are requesting that Your Execellency facilitates the resolution of the issues as a way of concretizing their understanding of th agreed positions. This will involve the following: (a) that the N200billion agreed upon as 2013 Revitalization Fund for public universities shall be deposited with the CBN and disbursed to the benefitting universities within two weeks. (b)that the renegotiation of the 2009 Agreement in 2014 be included in the final document as agreed at the discussion with your Excellency. (c)that a Non-vicctimization clause, which is normally captured in all interactions of this nature, be included in the final document, and (d) that a new Memorandum of Understanding shall be validly endorsed, signed by a representative of the Government, preferably the Attorney- General of the Federation and a representative of ASUU with the president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) as a witness. Your Excellency, please be assured that the union is willing to do all that is needful to resolve the lingering crisis as soon as the expressed observations of our members are addressed. Thank you. Yours in the Struggle, Nasir F. Isa, Ph.D Presidnt Source: PUNCH(29th November,2013.page 2) 2 Likes |

These are not the best times for most students of government-owned universities in the country. They have been reacting to the latest happenings. While some support the directive of the federal government, others are against such directive. “Giving ASUU an ultimatum might just serve to heighten the scepticism of ASUU towards FG’s promises,” Although I am vexed the students are not considered. Mary Scott, 400level student, University of Lagos said. “Are we back to the military era? Where threat and command language are used?” Maurice David asks on a social media platform. He said: “I pity this govt that lack sane people in position as ministers. How can government move ten steps backward only at the point of signing agreement? Just at the point the agreement is to be signed government begins to issue fiat and threats to scatter the table. This is shame!” For Joel Otuyelu, a student of UNILAG “This is a serious sensational movie. I can’t wait for the next episode. How Jona wan turn democracy to autocracy?” “An agreement is supposed to be honoured if the federal government cannot sign and seal an agreement it reached with ASUU on November 4 2013, then the future of Private universities is bright in this country, ”Akinpelu Tolulope, UNILAG student said. Tolulope further stated “The goal for ending the strike should not be to save parents anxiety or to take pity on students or to save lecturers’ job or to graduate students: it is to save the university system so that it becomes what it is supposed to be. “In this, ASUU should not fear an empty threat by the federal government but rather see itself as a vanguard-probably the only active one-dedicated to making the government begin to tread the path of responsible good governance in the administration of tertiary education in Nigeria .” For Hassan Aliu, an undergraduate, “What we have in this administration are not leaders but bunch of criminals who think we are in the military era. Who think their threat will put fear in ASUU to call of the strike. This shows the insincerity of this government. The question here is that is Jonathan worth to be trusted and called a leader.” However, Ugwu Henry is of the opinion that ASUU has bitten more than they can chew. “ASUU has provoked the Federal Government. It is a pity that after so much capitulation by the FG, ASUU is playing with the future of Nigerian students. ASUU has failed to be considerate. Why should one demand for salary when one has failed to work? I honestly hope the FG comes down hard on ASUU and resists any pressure to pay wages not earned.” In the same vein, Justin Ebaretonbofa has this to say: “Federal govt should do whatever they want. Nigerians are fed up with ASUU. When you ask federal government for anything you don’t expect them to give u 100 per cent of your needs. “It has never happen that way and it won’t happen now. ASUU is playing politics with the future of students. The lecturers who refuse to resume should be sack and new ones employ. After all there are millions of more qualified PhD holders looking for lecturing job. Haba !” According to Peremobowei Amakama, “I appreciate the FG directive to ASUU. ASUU has over-stressed the patience of FG and also mortgaging the future of Nigerian youths for their selfish reasons. Let the ones that believe we must move forward resume to class and account for their patriotism to Nigeria.” thenationonlineng.net/new/fgasuu- students-react/ |
