“It has been about two months now, and the government’s team has not come back to us, let alone sign a new deal. The implication of this development is that the political class does not care about any development in public universities,” he said.
According to Daily Sun, Osodeke lamented that despite over a year in office, the government had failed to permanently resolve any of ASUU’s longstanding demands.
“No single issue has been permanently resolved by this government since assumption, which is more than a year now, out of all issues concerning our agreements.
“So, in education, we can boldly say as a union that nothing has changed.
“We are still telling the same old story, whereas the rich keep sending their children abroad to study and returning after studies to take up the so-called lucrative positions, especially in public establishments, leaving the children of the poor to continue to suffer,” Osodeke added.
ASUU has not dismissed the possibility of a strike if the government continues to ignore its commitments.
