ASUU Strike Update; ASUU Holds Congress Meeting Today; Their will be a congress meeting among Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to brief members on President Goodluck
Jonathan’s offer.
The Federal and State Nigeria universities has been on strike more than four months due to Federal Government’s inability to implement the agreement it entered into in 2010 with lecturers.
ASUU argued that poor funding was responsible for the dwindling fortunes of education and its attendant poor quality of graduates, while the Federal Government said the university lecturers downed tools over enhanced earned allowance.
However, the long closure of universities led the leadership of the Senate and President Jonathan to hold separate meetings with the union and relevant stakeholders last Monday, where new offers were made to the teachers with a plea for them to re-open universities.
