Nigerian University Students Block Major Highway Over Lecturers’ Strike | Sahara Reporters

Scores of students of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, have blocked Ife-Ibadan Expressroad as they protest against the lingering industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities .The students who initially gathered at their campus gate on Thursday morning moved to the highway which connects Ife, Osun State to Ibadan, Oyo State.

The PUNCH reports that the students, who converged under the backing of the Fund Education Coalition, pledged to hold protests till the day their demands would be met by the Nigerian government. They displayed placards bearing various inscriptions like “Fund Education Now”, and “Education is not a Scam” among others, as they shouted in unison “End ASUU Strike”.Its demands include the revitalisation of public universities, payment of earned academic allowances and the deployment of the University Transparency and Accountability Solution for payment of university lecturers.

This still will not move government, it's still the poor masses that will suffer this road block. I'll suggest you just learn any high income skill online and work online. Even when the school resume, it will not affect your studies because you only work at your leisure time

Shey you wan collect wotowoto 🖐️

Don't give up. Continue. This people don't give a dam thing about education

Way to go

Disrupting the life of innocent masses who have families to feed at home will always not be the way forward

They should go and block airports roads which is those thieves roots.
