ASUU strikes from1999 till date: 1999 -5 months 2001 -3 months 2003 - 6 months (extended to early 2004) 2005 - 3 days 2006 - 1 week 2007 - 3 months 2008 - 1 week 2009 - 4 months 2011 - 3 months extend into 2012 2013 - over 4months and still counting,,,,, From the above analysis, its clear there was never a time FG met 100% of ASUU demands before they called off the strike. If this is the case, why has ASUU refused to shift ground even when FG has met more than 75% of their demands? From available information, FG has met all ASUU demands. The only contentious issue is the ambiguous N92b earned allowance claim which FG has released N60b to universities management to pay upon verification. Is the release of N60b not enough for a sane organisation to shift ground and allow Nigerian students enjoy the education they paid for while negotiation with FG continues? ASUU has however, continuously refused to tell Nigerians the contentious issues. The ones FG has met and the areas its yet to meet. The present ASUU represents nothing but deceit and has lost public sympathy. Its obvious ASUU strike has become annual event where lecturers abandon their jobs in public universities for part-time jobs in private universities. The best thing for FG is to disaband ASUU so that it wont have a national body again because it has become a political tool in the hand of APC to destabilise GEJs govt
