Daniyemi: This is an apotheosis at the highest empyema
and celestial in the academic aqua of nigeria.
After all the sagaic saga cum gagaic gaga and all
the propagandas promulgated and publicise by
the two parties assu and FG they still came into
a prudent and sagacious conclusion of ending
this peregrinated and phanstansmagoric strike. I
am in the state of unpanjandrumic and
unsardonic elatedness and my gastric that was in
the of deja vu ologomabia is now been
transmogrify and transmuted into a state of
heavenly el dora do. During the strike higgledy
piggledy cum hocus pocus and jiggery pockery I
was having a brain dyslexia and stomach
dyspepsia and all my body viscera was in the
pestilential and disastrous. Aqua of a
detrimental metagrabolism and roforofoism.
Now I m in the state of academic enthusiasm. So
every student stand up and wallow into a
unificated parapoism and espirit des lous.

Daniyemi: Lecturers of the University of Benin
(UNIBEN ) on Tuesday complied with
the Federal Government's directive to
resume work.
Some of the lecturers had reportedly
signed the resumption register
stationed at the Deans’ Offices at the
various faculties on the university
campus in Benin.
Efforts to speak with the executives of
the UNIBEN chapter of ASUU proved
abortive, as members of the union
were holding a meeting as at the time
of filing this report.
However, a lecturer in the university,
who preferred anonymity said the
strike was mismanaged by the national
ASUU leadership.
"We are not against ASUU or what it
is fighting for, but we are against the
methodology as well as the adamant
and childish approach of the
leadership at this point in time.
“Agreement can be written or oral,
and President Goodluck Jonathan has
assured us that the agreement with
ASUU would be implemented.
“I think the sensible thing to do is to
await the president's directive to
implement it; and if he does not do
it, we then call up another strike.
“Many of us are disappointed with the
union leadership's attempt to distort
what has been agreed upon by all
members across the country.
“We believe in the Federal
Government, we believe in what the
highest authority in the country has
said and we have decided to resume
work.


Abeg make Una no try call up another strike next yr o, not now am entering my final year. Make una no try delay my finals o. If una cucuma start no going back o whether the FG implement the agreement or not. Otherwise make una fight am out to the end o.

A Professor of Counselling and Psychology
at the University of Lagos, Ngozi
Osarenren, on Thursday said ASUU’s
insistence on getting its demands met is
not out of a callous desire to keep students
away from school as their own children are
enrolled in the same schools, and are
victims of the strike.
“ASUU members are not barren. They have
children staying at home too,” she said.
Speaking on Sunrise Daily, she said the struggle
for a better education sector is not for the
personal gratification of the members and
association. She said “no ASUU member is
sharing from the money it is demanding.
“It’s for the revitalization of the education
sector and it’s very painful that people who
ought to know are shamelessly playing the
ostrich, pretending not to know,” she said.
The former commissioner for education in Edo
state disclosed that the association had sent a
letter to the Federal Government on the 22nd
of November but until December 5th , there
has been no reply.
“How come the government cannot
communicate to ASUU since then? The
government has not sent any reply to ASUU.
We are only hearing this in the media.”
She stated that they have been labelled
militants and described as subversive but “we
are not asking for salary increase. No ASUU
member is sharing from the 200 billion naira.”
She stressed the fact that no Nigerian
university ranks among first 10 in Africa
despite the title “Giant of Africa” which the
nation lays claim to.
She accused the government of regarding
ASUU members as non-serious people who are
not to be reckoned with, adding that what they
sent to the government was leaked to the
press.
Despite the Federal Government’s disclosure
that it has created an account in the CBN for
ASUU, Mrs Osanrenren stated that they have
only seen it in the media and that the
government is yet to reply ASUU’s letter.
Speaking about those who have resumed in
UNILAG, she said people who have other
reasons may have resumed but insisted that
there are no factions in the school.
“The press is making the faction issue in
UNILAG to thrive. If you are not on strike, it
does not mean that there is a faction,” she
said.
Asked when ASUU will call off the strike, she
said, “once we get official document to show
that these things have been done, ASUU will
call off the strike.”

ASUU STRIKE: A NOTE TO NIGERIAN STUDENTS (a must read for all) | OSUN DEFENDER

I understand your pains, fellow Nigerian students. I just wish we had a better government in Nigeria, there wouldn’t have been any need for strike if government had been sincere and committed enough to implement the agreement it entered into with the union since 2009.
But shall we allow the rot in the system to persist all because we want to graduate on time? The “relatively cheap” education we enjoy in public universities today is the result of past struggles of students and staff unions who campaigned vehemently against the privatization and commercialization of public education. What sacrifice are we willing to make for the benefit of our children who will also aspire to get tertiary education? Do we wish that they continue with this rot?
What happens if the strike is called off without Federal Government meeting the demands of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)?
1. Our educational sector will continue to suffer gross under-funding. ASUU is fighting for an improved funding of the sector coupled with a gradual increase in the budgetary allocation to education to meet up with the UNESCO recommended 26% as against the 8.5% allocated in the 2013 budget.
2. Education standard will continue to fall due to under-funding, poor teaching facilities, inadequate and poorly motivated teaching personnel etc.
3. There will be an exodus of the best brains in our universities to private and foreign universities that are willing to offer better remuneration and welfare packages to lecturers.
4. Students will continue to learn in uncondusive environment characterized by over-populated classrooms, ill-equipped libraries and laboratory etc.
5. The products of Nigerian Universities will continue to be referred to as ‘half baked graduates’ and ‘unemployable’ by employers.
6. No Nigerian university will make the top 20 in Africa or the top 1000 in the world.
Have we ever bothered to ask ourselves why President Jonathan, his ministers, state governors and other ruling elites enroll their children in foreign and private universities? It is because they recognize that there is rot in the system, and they are unwilling to remove the rot.
Only a serious commitment by the Federal Government can reverse this ugly trend. Government will never willingly fund education adequately except it is compelled to. Little wonder the budgetary allocations to education since the return to civil rule in 1999 remains below 10% despite the unrelenting campaign for adequate funding by ASUU and other stakeholders. Why can’t the sixth largest producer of crude oil in the world fund education adequately when other less advantaged countries like Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire spend 31% and 20% of their budget on education respectively? These are worrisome facts
