Students Beg FG, ASUU To End Strike

Share

Some students of the University of Jos have appealed to the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities to find a common ground toward ending the incessant strikes in the universities.

They made the appeal in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday in Jos.

NAN reports that ASUU had on Monday declared a one-month warning strike to drive home their demands, just after it suspended its nine-month-old strike in December last year.

ASUU had claimed that the Federal Government was yet to honour the agreement it reached with it since 2009.

The students called on the duo to return to the negotiating table with a view to finding a lasting solution to the issue.

Meanwhile, popular comedian, Mr Macaroni has joined many Nigerians to plead with the federal government to come to terms with the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to end the nationwide strike.
