ASUU STRIKE: ''if FG go this way, the crisis will not be resolved in the next 100 Years” - ASUU Warns FG!
Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities
[ASUU], Calabar Zone, has reacted angrily to the
order to return to the classrooms issued to them by
the Supervising Minister of Education, Nyesom Wike,
saying that the action would worsen the strike action
rather than solving the problem.
ASUU accused the minister of deceiving President
Jonathan on the crisis, alleging that Wike and some
other unnamed officials of the Government did not
want the lingering problem between the union and the
Federal Government to be resolved.
According to the zonal coordinator of ASUU Calabar
zone, Dr. Charles Ononuju, with such threat the crisis
would linger far longer than expected.
In a statement in Umuahia,. Ononuju said that the union
received with shock the pronouncement by the
supervising minister, saying the crisis could not be
resolved that way.
"We received with shock the pronouncement of by
the Supervising Minister of Education, Wike, that
lecturers should resume work or be sacked", Ononuju
said.
He said that the union had gone far with discussion on
how to resolve the crisis and was waiting for
President Goodluck Jonathan's reply to their letter
after their meeting when the minister came up with
the "unfortunate" pronouncement.
"Sacking lecturers will not solve the problem but will
compound it. Wike should resign and come to the
university and teach. This is not the way to go if they
go this way, the crisis will not be resolved in the next
100 years", he warned.
