Okay.ng learnt that Professor Emmanuel Osodeke, President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has spoken over the weak condition public academies lecturers returning to classrooms due to the recently called off ASUU strike which lasted for eight months.

ASUU had been on strike from February 14 to October, members of the most protracted industrialized conduct suffered ceasure on payment of salaries on a “No Work No Pay” tag.

In an interview accompanying with newsmen Osodeke, pronounced the strike was pensile in submissiveness accompanying the standard regardless of absence of some marked compromise between the ASUU members and the federal government.

“As you can visualize from our bulletin by which we issued the suspension of the effect, we are conforming court orders, as we are a standard lasting merger. No agreement was marked, we hope the invasion of delegation of representatives will be holistic as well as vital issues will be determined.”

He further pronounced that lecturers are not satisfied because they were compulsory to continue classrooms while they’re poor and unpaid loans.

“How can members be happy when they were practically forced to go back to work without issues trashed out and demands met? The best option for resolving issues like this is negotiation, but that was not done.

“You don’t railroad people that way. Our members will go and teach, but getting a man who is hungry, who is indebted, who is owing banks loans because his salary was not paid to be happy to teach is another thing,” he said.
