BREAKING: ASUU Vows To Resume Strike After What FG Did To Its Members

ASUU has vowed to resume strike after what the Federal Government did to its members.
News ToGo reports that the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has been having a face off with the federal government over some issues. Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, National President of the ASUU has declared that if the Nigerian government does not pay their withheld eight-month salaries, university lecturers will go on strike again.
He stated that the new strike would be a protest against the government’s ‘No-work, No-pay’ policy. ASUU suspended its eight-month-old strike after a National Executive Council (NEC) meeting in Abuja in October.
The union embarked on strike to demand improved welfare for workers and funding for universities, among other issues. There were several meetings between the ASUU leadership and the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige who represented the federal government. But after what he described as “failed negotiations,” the government filed a suit against ASUU at the National Industrial Court.
In its ruling on September 21, the National Industrial Court granted the motion on notice filed by the Nigerian government and ordered ASUU to end the strike and return to the classroom immediately.
The trial judge, Justice Polycarp Hamman, while ruling on the interlocutory injunction, restrained ASUU from continuing with the strike pending the determination of the suit filed against the union by the Nigerian government.
But ASUU appealed the judgment at the Court of Appeal where it also filed a stay of execution of the ruling of the NIC.
However, the Court of Appeal upheld the ruling of the lower court and ordered the striking lecturers to “immediately” call off the strike and resume work with immediate effect. Despite complying with the court order, the government paid the lecturers half of their salaries for October. That is why ASUU is angry and vowing to go on strike again. Osodeke stated that the federal government failed to keep its promise.
He further said, Osodeke also expressed satisfaction with the response of ASUU members to the series of demonstrations by chapters of the union over the half-salaries paid to them in October.
“We are going to hold our National Executive Council meeting to appraise the situation and look at reports from the branches.
“It was NEC that mandated the branches to embark on the protests. Whatever is going to be the next line of action, we are going to decide at the NEC meeting,” he added.

Northerners Panic, Cry Out Over Plot To Sack Them From Abia After 70 Bodies Were Found

The Northern Community residing in Umuchieze Cattle Market in Umunneochi Local Government Area of Abia State has contested the government’s allegations of decomposing corpses around the market.
News ToGo reports that the Northerners saw the development as an excuse to evict them from the land they have occupied since 2005.
Governor Alex Otti had earlier stated that decomposed bodies, headless corpses, and skeletons were discovered in the market, and ransom for kidnappings was often dropped in the vicinity. He expressed concerns about the escalating insecurity in the Umunneochi/Isuikweato axis, labeling the market as a hub for criminals and kidnappers. Consequently, he ordered traders to reside with the natives in neighboring communities, intending to make the market non-residential.
In response, the community’s spokesperson, Buba Abdullahi, expressed dissatisfaction with the governor’s stance, rejecting the government’s claims about decomposed bodies and criminal activities in the market. Abdullahi contested the recent demolition of houses in the market, asserting that the community had peacefully coexisted with the locals for years.
Abdullahi emphasized their population of 15,000 and the 80 hectares of land donated to them by the previous government. He argued that forcing them to relocate to neighboring villages would equate to expulsion from Abia, highlighting their willingness to collaborate with the government to address security challenges in the area.
He further appealed, stating, “It is unjust, unfair, and ungodly for anyone to prevent any Nigerian from staying in any part they so desire in Nigeria.”

Keke Rider Almost Beaten To Death For Complaining That Muslims Blocked Road To Pray

There was pandemonium as some Muslims descended on a keke rider following his comment.
News ToGo learned that after the keke rider complained that the Muslims blocked the busy road in Lagos State to pray, what would have turned into a tragedy was averted. This was because the Muslims descended on him beating him mercilessly to the point that they nearly lynched him to death.
The man narrowly escaped from his attackers which saved the day. The enraged faithful then went ahead to destroy his keke which was another way of venting their anger since he had managed to escape from them in the course of the beating.
According to reports, the man would have been mobbed to death right there if he hadn’t run into a shop whilst they were beating him.
The Lagos state government has been urged to address the issue to save other people from being killed by such violent people. There have been cases of worshippers blocking the roads while praying which somehow affects other road users. This recent case which would have led to the killing of the keke rider is a reminder that if not prevented, such situation may repeat itself and things may get out of hand.
