We are ready to resume, says ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), on Thursday, gave an indication that the union will suspend its prolonged strike very soon, as its President, Prof Biodun Ogunyemi, declared that the varsity lecturers are ready to go back to school.

The ASUU President gave the hint even as the Federal Government, through the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, assured it would meet the union demands within time frame it stipulated.

Prof Ogunyemi, who was speaking at a meeting between the Federal Government, led by the Labour Minister and ASUU leadership, led by the President, said their members are willing to resume because it is a matter of national interest.

He points out that their members also have their children at home, like all other parents who have their children at home due to the prolonged strike.

The ASUU president said: “Our members are ready and willing to go to class because it is a matter of national interest. Just like every other person’s child is at home, our member’s children are also at home.”

Prof Ogunyemi commended the Senate President and the Minister of Labour and Employment, the Accountant General of the Federation, among others for making it possible for them to discuss on the issues.

He pointed out that though, ASUU delegation came with an open mind to the meeting, its members out there expect much from the meeting.

Plain truth.

a very good news and good development. lecturers deserve to be well taken care of by the FG so as to avoid future strike actions.


Both lecturers and students are happy to hear this news.

After ENDSARS let's join hands and #ENDXVIDEOS

Reopen our schools or else another protest will start #ENDASUUSTRIKE

Chai

Nice one

they want to compromise this protest

The Nigerian FG in another desperate bid to bait ASUU executives into calling the strike off to get the youths off the streets. Kolewerk.

If you're a student looking to take advantage of the little time left of the covid break, check my signature

Abeg, let these one shift to one side first. They're irrelevant now. When SARS/SWAT ends, then we will consider their matter.

Haaa


Weere dey disguise... Na plan to end End sars protest o. Divide and conquer.
If you like resume or not, na person wey dey alive dey go school

; ) c

Nooo...we no want
Continue with the strike

Nonsense. Money has exchanged hands. A plot to keep students away from protest.

The plan is to resume school and start serious lectures, tests and exam that will keep students busy and stop further protest.

Thunder fire all Nigerian politicians. NEXT is for them to buy media to stop publishing protests.

ASUU does not know that their being sellout will come back to hurt them.
