Fuel Hike: ASUU Declares Nationwide Strike by cruz97(m): 7:37am On May 18, 2016
National President of Academic Staff Union of Universities
(ASUU), Professor Biodun Ogunyemi has mobilized
members of the union for strike and mass action
commencing Wednesday to force the Federal Government to
revert the pump price from N145 to N86.50.
In a letter sent to members of the congress nationwide and
read at the University of Ibadan Chapter where the
Chairman, Dr Deji Omole mobilized members to get ready
for mass resistance to what he called the obnoxious and
callous policy of fuel price increment.
According to Omole, the policy of subsidy removal was the
most criminal ambush from the Mohammadu Buhari-led
federal government to empower the rich and cripple the
poor.
The ASUU boss who said that the common denominator to
all Nigerians is poverty added that the same APC
government that failed to pay civil servants for months is
now celebrating budget signing with the legalization of black
market.
Omole who noted that many state governors who now align
with the removal of subsidy ran their states aground
through wasteful spending added that the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission should beam search lights on
state governors.
ASUU boss noted that the coup against the masses adding
that since Nigeria runs motorized economy, Nigerians
cannot be forced to carry the problems created by the rich
and friends of government.
ASUU president in the letter entitled “Increase in Pump price
of Premium Motor Spirit to N145 perlitre: Proposal for Joint
Action with NLC stated that ASUU members are called upon
to according to our Union’s principles, fully respect Article 2
of the Constitution of ASUU; that our Union and members
shall work for the protection and advancement of the socio-
economic interests of the nation. Branch Chairpersons are
to conduct emergency congress meetings on Tuesday 17
May 2016 to mobilise our members for the action
commencing on Wednesday. All branches of ASUU
nationwide are to comply”
Ogunyemi anchored the position on “delayed, partially paid
and in most cases unpaid salaries for a number of months
by state, federal and local governments, disguised
retrenchment of workers, especially by State Governments,
in the name of verification exercise and endless hunt for
ghost workers and heavy taxation”...
