Nasir Fagge and Goodluck Jonathan
Federal Government says it has deposited the
N200bn promised as funding to universities in
an account with the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President
on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe and the
Executive Secretary of the National
Universities Commission, Prof. Julius Okojie,
confirmed this on Tuesday.
The amount is for renewal of infrastructure in
the nation’s public universities.
Okupe, who featured on Channels Television
programme ‘Sunrise Daily,’ said from the
government’s perspective, everything that
needed to be done had been done.
According to him, many of the demands of
the Academic Staff Union of Universities have
been agreed upon at the 13-hour meeting the
union had with President Goodluck Jonathan
which ended in the early hours of October 4.
“At the end of that meeting, the government
proposed that everything that has been agreed
should be put in a Memorandum of
Understanding and that the two parties should
sign. But the leadership of ASUU declined and
said instead of that, they would rather have a
letter expressing everything that has been
resolved therein, and that will suffice for
them.”
Okupe stressed that the attitude of the ASUU
leadership showed that the seed of discord
and evidence of bad faith already existed.
“It is unfortunate that somebody died but
notwithstanding, that cannot be a justification
for delaying the implementation of an
agreement for 21 or more days.
At a briefing in Abuja, Okojie, who also said
the money had been deposited in CBN, noted
that the Coordinating Minister of Economy
and Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-
Iweala, had confirmed to him that the money
had been deposited in the CBN.
ASUU had requested evidence that the money
had been released as a condition to suspend
the strike.
Okojie, who claimed that ASUU did not seek
clarification from the commission, however
said, such money could not be distributed
directly to universities.
“You don’t disburse such funds to institutions;
it is not earned allowance. The minister of
finance said since they opened the account,
the money had been deposited there. If there
was any doubt, NUC is here they (ASUU) could
have asked the question,” he said.
The NUC boss also revealed that government
had directed vice-chancellors of federal
universities to extend the resumption deadline
for lecturers to December 9 to allow ASUU
members to attend the burial ceremony of
Prof. Festus Iyayi.
Iyayi, a former ASUU president died in a
motor accident on November 12 while going
to Kano for the union’s National Executive
Council meeting.
The Supervising Minister of Education,
Nyesom Wike, at a briefing in Abuja on
Thursday, had warned that any lecturer that
failed to resume on or before Wednesday
(today) would be sacked.
But Okojie claimed that government was not
aware of the burial arrangement when the
deadline was issued.
“Council has been directed to shift the
deadline to December 9 to allow those who
have travelled to come back. That letter was
only received yesterday from the burial
committee which I also forwarded to the
Minister of Education”, he said.
Okojie promised that lecturers that resumed
by December 9 would be paid their salary
arrears.
“For those who resumed by December 9, their
salary arrears will be paid. We can’t pay
someone who is on strike salary. In a
democracy, those who want to work should
be allowed to work,” he added.
Okojie, who admitted that ASUU and the
Federal Government discussed the issue of
renegotiation, maintained that it was not
supposed to be included in the Memorandum
of Understanding as demanded by the union.
According to him, either of the parties could
call for renegotiation at any time.
Asked why the non-victimisation clause was
not included in the MoU as pointed out by
ASUU, Okojie said the issue was not discussed
at the meeting with the President, so could
not have formed part of the resolution.
He wondered why the union turned around to
raise the issue when it “never arose” at their
meeting.
The NUC boss claimed that ASUU went away
after the meeting with the President with the
mind that strike would be called off on Friday
only “to come back to say you (government)
didn’t include it.”
“We are saying that if there was an issue, it
would have been resolved. To come back after
three weeks means we are going back. The
issue of non-victimisation clause never arose,”
he insisted.
He, however, promised that the government
would not victimise anybody for his role in
the strike.
“Government is not going to victimise
anybody. Because of the mood that day,
nobody thought about it. The President shook
hands with everybody on that day. The letter
was written that night, they also vetted it.
“Government will not victimise anybody. If
any government is going to do that it is not
Jonathan’s government”, he assured.
But ASUU President, Dr. Nasir Fagge, who said
the decision had not been communicated to
the union, expressed doubt about the
sincerity of government.
He wondered why government instead of
responding to the letter of the union went
public that it had deposited the N200bn in
the CBN.
He said, “What they are doing is that they will
tell you something when in actual fact they
have not done anything. There were previous
times when they will call the public on a
matter only for us to find out that it has not
been done. If they have done it, what is
wrong in them answering our letter? Why are
they going to the public when we that they
are supposed to respond to we don’t know.”

Wike, ignorant of labour laws – ASUU
DECEMBER 3, 2013 BY KAMARUDEEN
OGUNDELE
24 Comments
Supervising Minister of Education, Mr.
Nyesom Wike
The Academic Staff Union of Universities has
said that the threat to sack striking university
lecturers issued by the Supervising Minister of
Education, Nyesom Wike, is a proof that the
minister is ignorant of labour laws.
ASUU President, Dr. Nasir Fagge, said at a
press conference in Abuja that a serious
government should be ashamed of the rot in
the universities which the union had been
struggling to tackle.
His statement was titled, ‘Misrepresentations
and intimidation: How not to manage the
crisis in the university system’.
He said, “It is unfortunate that close to 20
years of national life have not taught
politicians and their government the simple
lesson that the job of lecturers is bound by
the university statutes, which stipulate
conditions for employment, promotions and
dismissal of lecturers at all levels.
“That a minister of education would
pronounce a threat of mass sacking of
academic staff is a tragedy of huge proportion
for Nigeria and Africa.
“While ASUU has been struggling for
conditions in which Nigerian students would
benefit from a very much enhanced academic
environment in teaching and research
facilities, the Minister of Education is thinking
of a thoughtless mass sack as a solution to
the problems arising from government’s non-
implementation of an agreement reached with
ASUU as if Nigerian rulers have made no
intellectual progress since (late Gen. Sani)
Abacha.”
Wike, had at a news conference in Abuja on
Thursday warned that any lecturer that failed
to resume on or before Wednesday would be
sacked.
He had also told the vice-chancellors to open
attendance registers for lecturers to indicate
their resumption date.
He directed the vice-chancellors to advertise
vacancies (internal and external) in their
institutions if the lecturers failed to resume as
directed.
But ASUU described the Federal Government’s
threat to sack lecturers as “a tragedy of huge
proportion for Nigeria and Africa” and that it
would only compound the crisis.
“The salvos that have been coming out,
allegedly from the Minister of Education make
one to wonder whether the person that is
charged with the responsibility of
superintending over the Nigeria’s education
system has the wherewithal to handle such a
vital national assignment,” he said.
The union also accused the government of
embarking on a deliberate ploy to weaken the
public universities in favour of private
universities.
It said it would return to the negotiation table
if government showed commitment to solve
the problems in the sector.
ASUU said government through the Ministry
of Education and the National Universities
Commission had been feeding the public with
“rumours, lies and mischiefs” to mislead the
Nigerian public.
ASUU maintained that it did not make new
demands as claimed by the Federal
Government, but only demanded for proper
documentation to guard against
implementation failure.
This, ASUU said, was why it insisted that the
MoU be signed by a representative of
government, preferably the Attorney General
of the Federation, the lecturers representative
with the President of the Nigeria Labour
Congress as a witness.
“From all evidence”, Isa said, “it is clear that
ASUU has not made any new demands. First,
asking the government to implement its
agreement to provide N200bn in 2013 in two
weeks is not a new demand.”
Pointing out that the President and ASUU
agreed that the 2009 Agreement would be
renegotiated in 2014, and re-asserting it
because the letter from the Ministry of
Education omitted it, “is not a new demand.
“The inclusion of the non-victimisation clause
is a universal practice. And ASUU’s insistence
that the resolutions accepted by both sides be
signed by both sides is not a new demand but
a requirement of all agreements”, he added.
ASUU feared that the Government’s approach
to the education crises was a deliberate ploy
to privatize education.
It accused the Federal Government of
pursuing privatization policies in critical
sectors of the economy contrary to the
Nigerian Constitution which “states clearly
that the commanding heights of Nigeria’s
economy shall be publicly owned”.
The union singled out the late President
Umaru Yar’Adua for praise for desisting from
privatizing education.
Isa said, “We resisted Abacha’s dictatorship.
We refused to succumb to Obasanjo/IMF
attempts to weaken public in favour of private
universities. We convinced Yar’Adua to keep
faith with the interests of Nigeria’s youth and
desist from privatizing education. We
remember Obasanjo’s position that the
solution to ASUU’s resistance is to flood
Nigeria with private universities.
“In spite of all these, stretching from ASUU’s
principled resistance since the military, we
have noticed with disgust how easy it is for
ministers and governments to take refuge in
political blackmail. We shall never succumb to
this. Our country is our union’s constituency”,
he added.
The union urged Nigerians to ask the minister
why the government did not respond to its
letter before going to the public to claim that
ASUU was making new demands.
With 37,504 teaching staff in both Federal
and State universities, the union disclosed
that there was the need to recruit additional
23,000 lecturers.
It also recommended that government must
establish a policy that would improve national
teacher-student ratio to 1:20 within the next
two years.
ASUU lamented that majority of the
universities were grossly understaffed while
staff distribution in qualification and rank
indicated that Nigeria’s university system was
in crisis of manpower.
According to the union, only 43 percent
instead of 80 percent of the academics are
Ph.D holders, while only 44 percent instead of
75 percent are between senior lecturers and
professors.

ASUU to parents: Keep your children at
home

Supervising Minister of Education, Mr.
Nyesom Wike
The Academic Staff Union of Universities on
Sunday advised parents not to endanger the
lives of their children and wards by sending
them to their university campuses.
ASUU which also told its members not to
sign attendance registers in their institutions,
lashed out at the Federal Government for lack
of consistency in its statements on the
ongoing strike.
The Supervising Minister of Education, Mr.
Nyesom Wike, had at a news conference in
Abuja on Thursday, warned that any ASUU
member that failed to resume on or before
Wednesday would be sacked.
Wike also directed vice-chancellors to
advertise vacancies (internal and external) in
their institutions.
He told the vice-chancellors to open
attendance registers for lecturers that
resumed in their universities.
The Federal Government then directed the
Inspector-General of Police, Alhaji Mohammed
Abubakar, to deploy policemen in all the
federal universities.
On Friday, President Goodluck Jonathan, who
described the strike by the university
teachers as a “subversive action,” added that
ASUU had ceased to be a trade union.
But the Chairman, University of Ibadan
chapter of ASUU, Dr. Segun Ajiboye, said
parents should keep their children and wards
at home as no academic activity would
resume until the five-month-old strike was
called off.
Ajiboye added, “Don’t risk the lives of your
children and wards. Keep them at home
because ASUU will not teach. Soldiers and the
police deployed by the Federal Government
will not teach. Wike can come and teach in
the universities. It is a huge joke to sack
lecturers. Our strike must not be in vain. Our
students must see the results.
“It is funny. We thought we are in a
democracy. I assure Nigerians that we know
what the law says about the strike. Our job is
statue backed. We are not threatened. “We do
not trust the government. The record of the
government is clear. This government is
dishonouring agreements. Our members are
resolved to pursue this to a logical
conclusion.”
Ajiboye also said that the Federal
Government’s stance was from a script that
was played out by the military administration
of Ibrahim Babangida in the 1990s.
He stated, “Dear members, stay calm and
remain resolute. There is nothing wrong in
asking government to do what it says it will
do immediately. ASUU is not making any new
demands as the supervising minister is
propagating. Government is only repeating a
‘one act play’ scripted by the IBB dictatorship
in early 90s. It didn’t work then, and, it won’t
work now. All branches are intact. We cannot
be intimidated.
“If ASUU could withstand Babangida, this
government cannot threaten us. We have
worked this road before, the only thing that
will work is peaceful resolution. It is sad that
government wants to sack us because we are
asking for the resolutions. We are ready to be
sacked but government should learn from the
University of Ilorin experience. We are going
to stay the course.”
ASUU President, Dr. Nassir Fagge, urged
university teachers on Sunday not to sign
any attendance register.
Fagge, in a message to the UI chapter ,
urged the lecturers to be resolute in their
demands despite the threat of insecurity to
their jobs.
He said, “Comrades, can you see the
unfolding drama? Now Jonathan says they
didn’t give ultimatum. That the vice -
chancellors did and Wike became their
trumpet. But NUC’s (National Universities
Commission) ultimatum is by the Federal
Government to us to resume or get sacked.
“Wike’s press address says ‘FG has directed’
not ‘VCs have directed.’ Be calm, stay
resolute. By God’s grace, we are on course.”
The Chairman, University of Lagos chapter
of the union, Dr. Karol Ogbinaka, said
Jonathan’s description of the strike as a
“subversive action,” was unfortunate.
“How can our action be subversive when we
do not have arms and ammunition? We take
exception to that. We are academics not coup
plotters. I have a feeling he was misquoted. I
wish to deny this on his behalf because it is
an extreme statement,” Ogbinaka said.
He also faulted the buck passing on the
directive to reopen universities, saying it
pointed to the fact that the government was
“somersaulting.”
According to him, the Federal Government is
now shifting the blame among the pro-
chancellors, Committee of Vice-Chancellors
and Wike.
But the Presidency on Sunday insisted that
those behind the strike were enemies of the
state.
It said this could be the reason why the
ASUU leadership refused to call off the strike
even when 42 out of its 61 chapters voted
against its continuation.
The Senior Special Assistant to President
Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Dr.
Doyin Okupe, stated these at a news
conference in Abuja on Sunday.
He wondered why the leadership of the union
also refused to call off the strike even after
its 13-hour meeting with the President.
Okupe described the strike as an evil
programme motivated by selfish political
interest.
He said, “The ASUU leadership refused to
accede to the wishes of 42 of its 61 chapters
nationwide, who voted in favour of the
agreement with the President and the calling
off of the strike; but in a surprise volte face
presented government again with a new set of
demands and considerations outside the terms
agreed at the presidential intervention.
“From all indications therefore and other
information available to government, it has
become obvious that this is no longer an
altruistic strike borne out of good intentions
and aimed at improving the welfare of
students and staff of the universities and the
standard of our educational institutions.
“Rather it is an evil programme motivated by
selfish political interests and motivations
within the polity. These are, quoting late
British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, ‘the
enemies of state operating from within’”.
While Okupe was talking tough in Abuja, the
All Progressives Congress slammed the
government for issuing the sack threat
against the university teachers.
In a statement in Lagos, the APC said the
resort to military tactics reflected
government’s poverty of ideas in resolving the
prolonged strike.
The statement by the party’s Interim
National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai
Mohammed, also criticised Wike for the way
he talked down on the striking teachers, while
issuing the threat.
APC stated, ‘’Wike’s language was crude, his
presentation was rude and his threat was
demeaning and counter-productive. We
believe his lack of finesse and the inability to
think out of the box in handling the whole
strike issue will not bode well for a quick
resolution of the crisis.”
Meanwhile, the leadership of the Nigeria
Labour Congress will on Monday(today) meet
with the ASUU leadership as part of its
efforts to resolve the crisis between the union
and the Federal Government.
