Members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, are still on strike.
As we speak, they have accused the President, Muhammadu Buhari that he being insensitive to their plights adding that his posture on key educational issues is very regrettable.
This statement was made known by the Kano Zonal Coordinator of ASUU, Professor Mahmud Lawan when he met reporters at BUK Secretariat of ASUU.
In his submission, he said;
“The worse in performance in this matter is the office of Minister of Education Adamu Adamu, who has failed to mediate adequately between the union and the office of the president.
The worst is the Office of the Accountant General, which has been used to frustrate all previous ASUU-FG agreements reached so far.
As you are aware that we in ASUU are with the constitutional obligation of protecting advancing the socio-economic and cultural interests of the nation have continued through the decades to struggle for the survival and revitalization of public universities.
But today, the government is using all sorts of propaganda, including ensuring that we are starved of funds to show to Nigerians that our struggles are only on IPPIS, which is completely untrue.”
