Nothing in this life no matter how long it is will always have an ending.

will ever think that the ASUU strike will come to an end very quickly like that because all the meeting they have been doing has been falling in dreadlock, seems like they don't have a plan ahead, they are just rejecting the Federal government's offers. Who will think they will resume quickly especially me I will never think like or about that.

Once a human being come to the earth he is going to die one day, no matter how rich you are, wealth and power do not mean you won't die some days, if not now it might be later when you are old.

During this Asuu strike many things have happened to students, and lecturers who are supposed to be in school, some of the students have made it and have traveled abroad to continue their studies, while some are just struggling just to survive.

A quick example of what, I am trying to say there, is that let's give the type of things that might have happened to students or lecturers.

  • Some students have traveled abroad to continue their studies since they found Nigeria's academic staff union to be less productive than their meetings go.

Some rich students, or some students whose parents are very wealthy, don't want their students to waste time in university again since the strike is on they prefer carrying their children abroad to continue their education.

Some students made it on their own, they struggled so as survive and are now making it, so with the money they make, they used part of it to continue their studies abroad.

  • Some students and lectures won't make it to school later

Many things can cause this

  1. Death

Some students have died during this Asuu strike, which they are not supposed to if they were in schools it could have been prevented.

  1. Seeing a job In another place

Some students have found a job, a job that will give them huge amounts of money, and even lecturers have written resignation letters just because they have found suitable work in another place.

  1. Some students are now abroad making life there with their studies

  • The federal government has another plan of creating a new platform or academic union, and they just created one like CONUA and one other.

This new union CONUA recently gained power and it start to attract more lectures to itself, the union promised it will pay all its lost salaries and will fix the payment method they are insisting on.

This is not supposed to happen to assume the Federal Government has given ASUU what they want.

In case you don't know the full meaning of ASUU ( academic staff union of universities ) they hold power over the federal university, they don't have power over private universities.

And why did they go on strike? I think they had an agreement with the past federal government about their payment platform around 2009, which the government then promised to do, but they fail to do it. So they brought the topic up again in 2022, and they finally turn it into a strike, months are going, days are going these lectures are not receiving salaries. After 8 months they decided to court, and the court asked them to call off the strike.

That was all that happened since they call off the strike last week Friday l, and schools will be back again.

And that is a good thing to hear.....hello guys thanks for reading

It's sad to think that educational institutions are not that educational at all, making students and parents suffer instead.
