The major reason why ASUU has refused to call off its prolonged strike is the mind-boggling salaries and the unending allowances of political office holders in Nigeria, especially the Executive and Legislature.
.Com gathered that it is with this 'trouble' that ASUU leaders entered into a closed door meeting in Aso Rock with President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday. Sensing that the lectures are ready to speak their minds without fear, the meeting was shifted to the First Lady Conference Room.
Indication that the strike may be called off emerged when Jonathan said while shaking hands with members of the delegation that, “The matter must be resolved here today. Our children must go back to school.”
The meeting went into the early hours of Tuesday, all in a bid to find a final resolution to the strike that started on July 1, 2013. ASUU went into the meeting with the NLC President, Abdulawahid Omar.
On his part, Jonathan was joined by VP Sambo; Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala; Anyim Pius Anyim; Nyesom Wike and Minister of Labour, Emeka Wogu.
.Com gathered that if ASUU have its way, the strike will be called off soon but their would be a general reduction in the salary of political office holders across board by 2014.
