 And now our Minister of Labour and Employment, Crease Sengige, has accused Vassity teachers of whipping up sentiment against the federal government to attract sympathy to its planned strike, saying that the government had been implementing the Memorandum of Action signed in 2020 with the leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Universities ASU. The minister was reacting to the lecturers' threat to throw public Vassities into another round of strike to protest the yet-to-be-met demands, said the government released 70 billion Naira in 2021 for both revitalizations of public universities and end academic allowances to demonstrate commitment to the MOA implementation. The lecturers say the full implementation of the 2009 agreement is what can avert the strike.
