The shutting of universities: Dissecting ASUU's complicity and lack of tact, By Gbemiga Ogunleye

If Federal Government officials who have demonstrated absolute incompetence and insensitivity by keeping our children at home when they should be in school studying, deserve to be tied to the stakes, then officials of the Academic Staff Union of Universities , too, deserve to be flogged publicly at the market square!The cause of the strike is too well known to be stated here.

By extending the strike by another three months, ASUU is unconsciously aiding the government officials to destroy the future of the younger generation. To add insult to the proverbial injury, those who are charged with the responsibility of resolving the ASUU crisis are busy campaigning, preparing for next year’s general election.On the part of the university lecturers, they are obviously sold on the idea that, the only language government understands, is the language of strike.

Couldn’t ASUU have embarked on advocacy campaigns to our leading traditional rulers and elder statesmen on the need for them to make government see reason.
