Latest Asuu Strike News: We Are Giving FG A Three Week Ultimatum To Meet Our Demands
Education minister Adamu Adamu said this at press briefing at the end of the meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC). He said the industrial action was abrupt amidst of negotiations.
“There is a solution to this. The negotiations are the solution and that is why I have said that I am surprised that ASUU has gone on strike,” he said.
“ASUU, unfortunately, have gone on strike and I am looking for them because all the issues are being addressed.
“The last thing that happened was that our committee looked at their demands but there are renegotiations going on. They submitted a draft agreement which the ministry is looking at.”
On the draft agreement with ASUU, he said: “A committee is looking at it. Immediately it finishes, the government is meant to announce what it had accepted. Then suddenly, I heard them going on warning strike.”
“We want a peaceful resolution. The federal government is ready to meet them on all issues they have raised and if there are so many meetings and the gap is not closing, then, I think it’s not the fault of the government.”
When Asked if the government can reach an agreement with ASUU before the end of the 30-day strike, the minister said it was difficult to ascertain that as there were others involved. ASUU Strike To Be a Total Indefinite, Suffocating And Comprehensive Strike – Emmanuel Osodeke
