Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) yesterday said a smarter way to preserve the future of Nigeria was for the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government to fund education and sign a decent 2009 agreement with the union, to stop the over two months old strike.

It said the attitude of the President and its appointees to the strike since it started showed that they did not have the mind to liberate the children of the masses as well as give them quality education through committed funding and signing a new decent welfare package for ASUU members.

ASUU, speaking through the Chairman of the University of Ibadan chapter of the union, Prof. Ayo Akinwole, said that funding education remained the best way to shape the minds of youths to constructive development of their society.

Akinwole in a statement said the government ought to see that more children were getting out of school and were useful pawns to youths fighting back against the society that neglected them.

He said the union was afraid if there would be a country in the nearest future since “it seems more money is being pumped into security for war entrepreneurs to become millionaires and billionaires without addressing the causes of insurgency and terrorism.”
