The House of Representatives has called on the Federal Government to implement the agreement it reached with the Academic Staff Union of Universities,
At the plenary on Tuesday, the House specifically urged the Ministry of Labour, Employment & Productivity and ASUU to “adhere to the clauses and provisions of the previous Memorandum of Understanding and the Memorandum of Action in the interest of Nigerian students and education sector in Nigeria and call off the warning strike.”
These resolutions followed the unanimous adoption of a motion moved by a member of the House, Dozie Nwankwo, titled ‘Urgent Need to Address the Frequent Strike Actions by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.’ The lawmaker decried the “individual and corporate pains the strike action inflicted on Nigerian students, parents and the education sector, to the extent that it disrupted the academic calendar and impacted negatively on the teaching staff, their families and the depreciating standards of Nigeria’s public universities.”
