Anglican Primate, Rev. Okoh tells FG to "dissolve" ASUU

Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion has called on the federal government to disband the Academic Staff Union of University, ASUU. According to him, the methods adopted by ASUU were highly immoral and must be discouraged.

Okoh made this call in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, on Thursday, during the Standing Committee Meeting of the Bishops Conference of the church.

He said, “The government should find a way either to privatise universities or get ASUU to be limited to individual universities such that there will be no national ASUU body, mandating even institutions without grievances to go on strike.

“There is no such body anywhere in the world. Challenges facing any institution should be treated locally without involving others.

“While the ASUU strike lasts, university lecturers are busy teaching in private universities (most of which lack lecturers) and earning money and when the strike is over, they will still be paid for the period of the strike.

“This is highly immoral and must be discouraged.”

The cleric urged government to agree to the demands of ASUU, describing the academic, moral and social implications of the strike as enormous.

He further warned politicians to beware of those who had earlier predicted that Nigeria would break up by 2015. DailyPost

ASUU blasts Anglican bishop over "Dissolving ASUU" comment

The Academic Staff of Union of Universities has blasted the Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, over the clergy’s comment on the strike by the university teachers.

Chairman of the University of Ibadan chapter of the union, Olusegun Ajiboye, said in a release titled, ‘Primate Okoh goofed’ that the Anglican bishop’s comment did not depict him as a religious leader with responsibility to integrate warring factions.

Ajiboye said, “The Primate has demonstrated the greatest ignorance about the union and the numerous achievements the union has recorded in repositioning Nigerian universities in the past. As a revered man of God, it is expected that he should guard his mouth on issues as important as education that concerns the teeming youths of our country.

“Primate Okoh should stop playing politics with ASUU. He should face squarely the work of his ministry and get busy with it if he cannot be part of the solution to the logjam created by the Nigerian government in the education sector. We are sure that the statement credited to Okoh is his personal view that does not represent the opinions of the responsible men and women in the Anglican Communion who believe that Nigerian youths deserve the best education like all other youths around the globe.”

While accusing the striking lecturers of taking advantage of the situation to earn income at private universities in the country, Okoh had said the national outlook of the lecturers’ union should be discouraged by government.

Meanwhile, the Christ Apostolic Church has asked the Federal Government to meet the demands of the striking universities’ lecturers. - Punch

School without asuu compliance are really enjoying their academic sessions. Asuu is the main problem. If the govt says infrastructure is ok like dt, then so b it. Taking it too personal to the extent of jeopardizing students' career is out of the way. We all knw it start with the govt and will always go back to them in terms of whom to blame.
