ASUU President Emmanuel Osodeke made the union’s position known on Monday, more than two weeks after Union declared a one-month warning strike over the Federal Government’s inability to honour its agreement with the body.
He explained the members of the union have sacrificed for the country’s educational system, noting that many universities have not missed any academic year in spite of the strike actions by ASUU.
Osodeke said many lecturers have not gone on leave for years as they try to meet up with the calendar, debunking claims that varsity teachers are paid for doing nothing.
Despite complaints from Nigerian students that they are the ones who bear the brunt of the incessant strikes by the union, the ASUU president told them to hold the government responsible.
Osodeke, while confessing that the students have the right to protest what they believe is wrong, said ASUU is not moved by the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS planned protest.
