Private Universities Vice Chancellors asks NANS To Mediate Between FG and ASUU

The journey is long and is boring, since it’s now becoming political issue between ASUU and FG.
The problem now is that it seems that the federal government is kind of keeping quiet over this, since most resolution is met with a dead end from ASUU governing body.

Following threats by the National Association of Nigerian Students, (popularly known as NANS) to shut down private universities over the protracted strike embarked upon by Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Vice Chancellors of private universities, has yesterday, been the 12th of September 2013, charged the students’ body to mediate between government and ASUU to return normalcy to the country’s universities.

While speaking separately in a telephone chat with Vanguard, the Vice Chancellors argued that there was no need for the threat, since private universities were not owned by government and that their owners didn’t enter into any agreement with the striking university lecturers.

They noted that they also have their wards and relations in public universities, who are affected by the shutdown.

According to Professor Isaac Adeyemi, Vice Chancellor, Bells University of Technology, BELLSTECH, Ota, Ogun State, NANS is made up of matured minds and must, therefore, broker peace between government and the aggrieved lecturers.

I just hope that everything goes back to normal and students will be allowed to go back to SCHOOL!

it’s really getting out of hand, this strike might last for years if nothing is done about this.
