FG hints on when ASUU strike is to be called off

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, gave the hint in Onitsha, Anambra State, while speaking to reporters.

Ngige revealed that funds had been provided to meet most of the demands of the union.

He said the Federal Government would make necessary efforts to ensure that the strike comes to an end as soon as possible this January.

According to Ngige, the issues that made ASUU to embark on strike were based on agreement which the union entered into with the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, which the administration failed to implement before President Muhammadu Buhari took over power.

And the Government is willing to put an end yo the Unions breakout and hopefully all students return back to their Various Universities.

According to the minister, the Buhari administration is labour-friendly and is always concerned about the welfare of the nation’s workforce.
