ASUU Strike: Nigerian Varsities To Open Next Week, With Or Without ASUU?
The latest news coming your way on ASUU strike is that the FG is set to open Nigerian Universities with or without ASUU, according to ScanNews Nigeria.
President Goodluck Jonathan will on Monday, November 4, meet with the leadership of ASUU at the Presidential Villa.
An official of the Vice President’s office who pleaded anonymity told Scan News that all hands are now on deck to ensure that the Universities resume next week.
The President will at next Monday’s meeting present to the ASUU leadership the administration’s last concession for them to call off the prolonged strike.
A source at the Presidential Villa noted that if ASUU fails to call off, the Federal Government will then resort to plan B, which will be to compulsorily open the Universities, using the instrumentality of the governing councils and the school managements.
Already, most of the governing councils of the Universities have started meeting to work out modalities for the compulsory re-opening of the Universities should ASUU fail to honour the personal request of President Jonathan.
It was gathered that security report available to the Presidency may have necessitated this line of action to salvage the Universities system from the direction it is facing at present.

simply stupid, pathetic and absurd! only morons like the author of this useless piece can imagine a university opened with no lecturers.
Well, I don’t want to call the writer stupid because we know many things the Government has done that we can consider dumb. However, I agree with you that the Universities cannot function without lecturers. As it is now, the University are not even closed because we have other members of staffs not under ASUU working.
ASUU greediness will kill u all.
it is obvious dat some persons dat have commented are not students of any versity nd as such has made poor judgment. Alas I have seen dis lecturers within nd outside d classrooms nd I can say with much conviction dat dis ppl hav little or no passion for lecturing or groomin d students. therefor their motives are questionable. morealso a 500billion project is one dat cannot be executed in d next4 to 5yrs and u are requestin for 100% payment. most contracts are awarded wit25% start up fund and as work progresses anoda25% until completion. So it is wisdom on d part of FG to start up wit 100billion nd pay off installmentally.. therefor ASUU has faulted again on dis basis. dey shuld be sincere first in d classrooms before fightin a selfish course. Abi na lie I talk?
Even if, Asuu is corrupt,they are fighting for our own benefits!!nigerian Universities will be standard and one may be ranked in Africa
