National Association of Nigerian University Students has threatened to sue the Academic Staff Union of Universities over what they described as incessant strikes in Nigerian university system.

According to the students, the action is aimed at determining whether at the point of entry into any university, such a university is bound by the number of statuary years a student will spend in the system depending on the course they are studying.

Addressing the press in Jos on Tuesday, NANUS National President, Mr. John Offia, said the “National Executive Council of the NANUS has resolved to initiate legal action against ASUU and other appropriate authorities with a view to determining whether the incessant strike do not constitute a beach of the terms and conditions of the admission of students of Nigerian universities.”

The student body said it had unanimously agreed to take up the matter on behalf of students in the next two weeks, after notifying the authorities concerned.

It added that the action was not only to bring to an end to strikes by ASUU but also to stop strikes by lecturers.

While calling on ASUU to end the current strike and allow the students to go back to classes, NANUS regretted that Nigerian universities had been producing half-baked graduates, because they were usually rushed on resumption through crash programmes.

The body said, “The distortion of academic calendar is making duration programmes a mockery and peripheral lectures on resumption is bringing about half-baked graduates and as future leaders of this country, there will be no hope that Nigeria will be better if this situation continues in tne administration of our university system.”
