The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has advised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to prioritise provision of basic amenities nationwide.
ASUU National President, Emmanuel Osodeke, who made the call in Ota, Ogun state, was speaking against the backdrop of President Tinubu’s Democracy Day speech on June 12.
Tinubu said the Federal Government would invest massively in education, infrastructure and transportation.
Osodeke aklso noted that Nigeria had not done well since the return of democracy in the country due to lack of basic amenities that would benefit Nigerians.
The ASUU President listed some of the basic amenities to include, stable electricity, good roads, functional refineries, good rail system and adequate funding of education, where both the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary institutions would be functional.
He said Nigerians wanted to see where universities or undergraduates would be competing with their counterparts in other parts of the world.
