FG/ASUU in crucial talks – ASUU may call off strike today – Tribune

October 16, 2009 by Bunmi Awolusi 

One week after the suspension of the about four-month-old industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), the renegotiation between the ASUU and the Federal Government to resolve and fine-tune the grey areas of the draft agreement commenced on Thursday, in Abuja.

The Federal Government’s renegotiation team, with the fresh mandate by the Federal Government to conclude negotiation with the ASUU, was led by Deacon Gamaliel Onosode. The team included the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Professor Oladipo Afolabi; National Universities Commission (NUC) Executive Secretary, Professor Julius Okojie and his Education Trust Fund (ETF) counterpart, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, among others.

ASUU president, Ukachukwu Awuzie, led the team that included the former ASUU president, Alhaji Sule-Kano, in a meeting that began at about 3.30 pm.

    What can I say but I am not just tired of this country but also sick I think a little solution to this problem is for the senate to make a law that disallow the sliblings of any person holding any political post frm schooling abroad If they think schooling home is a problem let their parent deal with it.

    I am delighted to hear that the strike may be called off today because i have not been able to return back to school due to the fact that the strike was suspended a week ago and if the FG does not comply we student will start returning home again. i really appreciate the effort of the governor of Edo state Comrade Adams Oshoimole.
