Nigeria President, Muhammadu Buhari has given the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, to resolve issue with ASUU.
The Daily Page recalls that ASUU had embarked on strike on February 14, over Federal government’s failure to implement their demands.
Recently, NLC revealed plans to hold a two-day national protest to demand the immediate reopening of the Nigerian universities which had been shut down for five months.
Today, President Buhari, in a meeting with the minister and other relevant agencies, directed Education minister to end the face-off with the university unions, on Tuesday.
The president summoned them to get more information on why the strike had persisted for too long.
After Tuesday’s briefing, the President ordered the education minister to ensure that the areas of disagreements were sorted out within two weeks and report back to him.
Buhari directed that the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige must be in any of the meetings to resolve the crisis.
