“It is in this 2022 that we are now putting the issue of our condition of service as part of the conditions. It is not even pursued separately; it is part of the 2009 demands. From all indications, if successive governments could understand the body language of ASUU, know the objectives and the reason why they go on strike always, all they should have done was to be proactive by doing things even before ASUU talks about it.

“These politicians rather than face the problem squarely and solve it, they are talking about 2023 election. Somebody recently, sent a bill to the House of Representatives, demanding that public servants, government officials; President, governors, ministers and National Assembly members ,should desist from sending their children abroad. You can see the way they vehemently opposed that bill. The country is finished; this country is finished.

He added, “Is this not the same country where we export crude and we import fuel? Many things in the country are wrong, and yet, people move around as if everything is okay. That is the only way I can blame the people. It is a small percentage of the Nigerian population that is putting us in this kind of stress. If Nigerians were up to their responsibility, they would not allow the ruling class to destroy the country to the level we find ourselves now.

He said, “For us in the civil society space, the buck stops at the table of Mr President. Every other person, according to our law, is just working for him. The legislators should also be blamed. Both the Presidency and the legislature have always told us that there is paucity of fund, oil price is fluctuating, yet these persons still go home with jumbo pay.

For Jackson Omenazu, the Chancellor of the International Society for Social Justice and Human Rights, the government failed the youth when it prevaricated on issues concerning the development of the education sector. Omanazu explained that the structures housing public universities in the country were nothing to write home about, observing that most of them were currently in a decrepit state.
