Teachers PortalSpeaking in an interview with our newsmen, the national president, ASUU, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, explained that the only way strike action could be avoided during Tinubu’s administration was if he holistically looked into the Nigerian education system without bias.
He said, “The Buhari-led government set up a scheme for negotiation in 2017 but it didn’t finish it till 2023, does that sound right? This was the reason we had a crisis with the last regime. We pray that people like the Minister of Employment and Labour, Chris Ngige, do not have access to anything that has to do with governance in this country again.
“Tinubu should also ensure that we have in Nigeria what other countries have that make people troop into their countries for education. He should ensure that the budgetary allocation given to other countries that are doing well in terms of education should be allocated to ensure that the system becomes functional. Sincerely, there should be a designated meeting with ASUU and negotiations, that way, we will solve all these problems. Let universities operate according to their laws.” he partly added.
