The Federal Government has reconstituted a committee to renegotiate the terms of an agreement it willingly signed with ASUU years ago, which it serially reneged. Can you beat that?
What sort of criminal idiocy is that? How can you negotiate for a change of the goalpost years after a goal has already been scored and think you’re normal?
Students of poor people who can’t afford private or foreign universities are writhing in emotional trauma because their futures are being put on hold, and all that Adamu Adamu can do is constitute another pointless committee of effete geriatrics?
It’s now clear that Adamu Adamu has no clue, and has no interest in resolving the crisis in our universities that he wrote passionately about.
I have siblings and cousins whose university education I’m financing, so this affects me personally, but I cannot in good conscience fault ASUU’s strike. I can’t. I don’t know what else I’d do if I were in their shoes.
This is a thoroughly irresponsible and criminal government. If Adamu Adamu has any smidgen of decency left in him, he should resign, admit he is a failure, and apologize.
