The Academic Staff Union of Universities on Thursday announced its disengagement from further negotiations with the Federal Government, over what it describes as the latter’s perceived insincerity in the 2009 agreement as well as the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) both parties signed in January last year.
The Union's National President, Dr. Nassir Faggae Isa, said at a press briefing held at the University of Lagos on Thursday that the 2009 agreement and the MoU must first be honoured, even if ASUU feels the need to consider renegotiation with the government.
The back and forth game continues and students are held to ransom, cos our government failed to honor an agreement.
The union had embarked on a total strike on July 2 over government‘s failure to honor the 2009 agreement.
And the student's future are caught in the middle of this imbroglio. So sad that in this day Nigerian Universities are still plagued with strike action. When will it end?
