Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Federal Government says it has done all it can to end the ongoing industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).<\/p>\n

The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, who stated this on Tuesday while meeting with Pro-Chancellors and Vice-Chancellors of Federal Universities at the National Universities Commission (NUC) Abuja, said all previous efforts by the government to return the lecturers back to class have proved abortive.<\/p>\n

He said he and many government officials had engaged the union on several occasions to end the seven-month-old strike.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have done the best that we can in the circumstance. After inter-ministerial consultations and rounds of hard negotiations with all government agencies, we interacted with the Unions. I personally, gave it all it required to resolve the current challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cI met the Unions anywhere and everywhere possible with facts, with figures, and with absolute sincerity.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, I directly met with ASUU leadership in my house, in my office and at the ASUU Secretariat on several different occasions, in addition to other formal engagements going on,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Minister added that President Muhammadu Buhari had directed them not to accept any demand that is not feasible.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST reports that ASUU had, on February 14, 2022, shut down public universities, demanding full implementation of previous agreements the union and the FG had entered into.<\/p>\n
