The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has, on Monday, bemoaned the action of the striking Academic Staff Union of Universities for not calling off its industrial action, saying enough is enough for keeping students at home.

He said this on Monday in Daura, Katsina State, when he received some governors of the All Progressives Congress, legislators, and other political leaders at his residence.

The PUNCH reports the ASUU strike has entered its fifth month, with resumption not in sight as the lecturers are yet to shift grounds on their demands.

Buhari urged the lecturers to reconsider their stance on the prolonged strike, noting that the crisis would have generational consequences on families, the educational system, and the future development of the country.

The President said the strike was taking a toll on the psychology of parents, students, and other stakeholders.

He noted that the future of the country was resting on the quality of educational institutions and education. While assuring that the government understood the union’s position, he urged that negotiations should continue while students return to classes.

A statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, quoted him as saying, “We hope that ASUU will sympathise with the people on the prolonged strike. Truly, enough is enough for keeping students at home. Don’t hurt the next generation for goodness sake.”

Buhari asked all well-meaning Nigerians, especially those close to the leaders and members of the union, to wade in on the matter and persuade the lecturers to resume.

The President noted that students from Nigerian universities would experience challenges competing with counterparts in a highly connected and technology-driven workspace, and keeping them at home only deprived them of time, skill, and opportunities to be relevant on the global stage.

He said, “Colonial type education was geared towards producing workers in government. Those jobs are no longer there. Our young people should get education to prepare them for self-employment. Now education is for the sake of education.

“Through technology, we are much more efficient. We should encourage our children to get education, not only to look for government jobs.”

“By this time next year, I would have made the most out of the two terms, and in the remaining months I will do my best.”

“If you are greedy, you won’t look around to see what is happening with those who are less endowed,’’ he added.

Yeye president

When u don't value education.

Assuming u value education, the ear problem u have been dealing with should be a thing of the past.

Use efcc account to settle the ASUU strike.

Else if u calculate the total number of ASUU student on strike with PVC, then APC have lost it automatically.

Every attention is shifted towards Tinubu choice of running mate.

Who is asking why a Muslim should hand over to another Muslim?

From 1999 Obasanjo a Christian handed over to Yaradua a Muslim and Yaradua a Muslim handed over to Jonathan a Christian. Jonathan handed over to Buhari a Muslim.
It has gone from Christian to Muslim and from Muslim to Christian.

Why is Tinubu a Muslim or Atiku a Muslim trying to get power from another Muslim?

My brother, I will never support a Christian to hand over to another Christian. We are created multi religious for a reason.

Out country need justice for properity. We need peace. We need harmony. We need patriotism. Today we cannot host any major world event because of the unjust system.

Why can't blacks learn to enact justice that will make them move forward. And to allow Muslim Muslim ticket is the height of injustice.

All Nigerians whether Muslim or Christians should always seek justice. What you would not allow to happen to you, please don't do it to others. It's a shame what we have been hearing since morning. Buhari is supposed to hand over to a Christian. We need justice.

No. Money money.

Yet corruption it's at its peak

There are some questions that common sense

Can answer but I forget, common sense is not as common for our leaders.

Running expensive govt is making the country go broke and yet u re not doing anything productive to substitute or raise revenue in other to maintain the cost.

Them no gree borrow bubu again

That is black mentality for u.

They will never make laws or invent technology that will take them to jail.

They rather believe in embezzlement of public funds and take it outside the country for personal use.

Public hospitals are the worst in Nigeria.
