ASUU Strike Update: ASUU Rejects Federal Government's Offer, Continues Strike

Undergraduates and admission seekers into public universities may continue to hang as ASUU, yesterday vowed to continue the nine-week-old-strike. ASUU National President, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, said university lecturers had rejected the Federal Government offer of money to end the strike because it did not meet their demands. He said that the Federal Government had, last Tuesday, through the office of the Accountant-General of the Federation and the Ministry of Finance presented evidence of the payment of N15.4 billion to universities to the union. Ogunyemi said that after due consultations with its executives across the country, they have resolved to continue the ongoing strike until the Federal Governments pays at least N220 billion out of N1.1 trillion it owed the public universities. "If our demands are met, we will call off the strike. We have shifted grounds from N1.1 trillion to N220 billion that will cover for three quarters in 2019." Recall that during the meeting between the Federal Government and ASUU on Tuesday in Abuja, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige who believed the Federal Government offer of N15.4 billion would be acceptable by the Union said that ASUU was at the verge of calling of the strike. However, in his conversation, he reiterated that the union was ready to call off the strike next week if the federal government paid the N220 billion. "We presented five tranches payment to the federal government. If we made request for five tranches of N1.1 trillion and they are not ready to give one, that shows they are not ready to shift grounds." Asked his take on the impact of the strike on February elections, Ogunyemi said: "ASUU strike has nothing to do with the February elections. We have being on these issues since 2016, it’s not something new. Government is aware of the Memorandum of Understanding it signed with us since 2016, therefore nobody should say that we are after the elections. We want people to know that our position has nothing to do with election. We have always drawn a line between ASUU struggle and elections.
