Atiku speak on Asuu strike, Demand Founding For Varsities



People Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has demanded a solution to the lingering strike of the Academic staff union of universities (ASSU).

Several efforts to resolve the strike have not yielded results as the lecturers accused the Federal Government of being insincere.

In a post on his verified Facebook page on Friday, the PDP's presidential candidate said an investment in education is the best.

"The mind is a very terrible thing to west. It may be a bit cliche, but I nevertheless believe this. And strongly too."

"Education is the priority to me. That is why i invested in it and even furtherd my education. An investment in education pays the best dividend. Let us found Asuu for the sake of our youth!" 

Among the demands of the striking lecturers are the revitalization of public universities, Earned Academic Allowances. Use of the Universities Transparency Accountability Solution (UTAS) and promotion areas.

Last month, Minister of labour and employment, Chris Ngige, said the end of the strike is in sight.

The minister said he government had summoned all the relevant agencies, including the National Information Development Agency (NITDA), to brief it on the success so far recording in resolving the contentious issue that led to the ongoing strike.

Ngige said the government was interested in seeing the students going back to school.
