BREAKING: ASUU

BREAKING: ASUU suspends strike, directs lecturers to resume today

September 18, 2017Azeezat Adedigba

ASUU Strike: Lecturers meet Nigerian govt delegation
ASUU Strike: Lecturers meet Nigerian govt delegation
 






The Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities, ASUU, has officially suspended its one month, six days strike.

ASUU said it was suspending the strike till end of October for government to fulfill its pledges.

The union directed university lecturers to resume duty from tomorrow, Tuesday.

The suspension of the strike was announced on Monday evening after a meeting with the government delegation.

At the meeting, a memorandum of understanding was signed with the federal government delegation led by the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige.

Mr. Ngige had earlier said both parties produced “collective agreement of action” after the meeting.

ASUU embarked on an indefinite strike on August 13, following government’s failure to implement the agreement reached with the union in November 2016

IPOB media warriors and sympathizers have now changed gear. Their new lyric is, "why hasn't the Nigerian Army declare Fulani herdsmen a terrorist organization despite their atrocities?"

IPOB media warriors and sympathizers have now changed gear. Their new lyric is, "why hasn't the Nigerian Army declare Fulani herdsmen a terrorist organization despite their atrocities?"

My response:

a. The herdsmen are a faceless and unknown group of bandits and criminals who operate clandestinely.

b. They have not openly declared war on any state of the federation let alone the nation.

c. They have never dared the Armed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

d. They do not seek secession from the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

e. They have been contained and subdued - to a large extent - by the Nigerian Army.

f. Whether or not they are declared terrorists, the Nigerian military is constantly in war against the criminal herdsmen and have killed hundreds of them.

Note: Anyone that comes here to drum support for IPOB or condemn the military will be declared a terrorist and summarily excused from this space.

SEVEN REASONS WHY THE DEFENSE HQ DECLARED IPOB A TERRORIST ORGANISATION

SEVEN REASONS WHY THE DEFENSE HQ DECLARED IPOB A TERRORIST ORGANISATION 

a. The formation of a Biafra Secret Service.

b. Claimed formation of Biafra National Guard.

c. Unauthorised blocking of public access roads.

d. Extortion of money from innocent civilians at illegal road blocks.

e. Militant possession and use of weapons (stones, molotov cocktails, machetes and broken bottles among others) on a military patrol on 10 September 2017.

f. Physical confrontation of troops by Nnamdi Kanu and other IPOB actors at a check point on 11 September 2017 and also attempts to snatch their rifles.

g. Attack by IPOB members, on a military check point on 12 September 2017, at Isialangwa, where one IPOB actor attempted to snatch a female soldier’s rifle.

From the foregoing, the Armed Forces of Nigeria wishes to confirm to the general public that IPOB from all intent, plan and purpose as analysed, is a militant terrorist organisation. Therefore, parents and particularly unsuspecting residents of the South East and other Nigerians should advice their wards to desist from joining the group.

ASUU Strike: No End In Sight

ASUU Strike: No End In Sight

September 14, 2017
ASUU President, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi and other executives
Gbenro Adesina/Ibadan
Hope that the strike action embarked upon by Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, is about to come to an end appears dashed as congresses of universities met across the country to deliberate on the recent agreements reached between the leadership of the union and the Federal Government.
Feelers from the congresses that have met indicate that the unions were not ready to call of the strike because the government is yet to show the necessary commitment to their plights. For instance, in congresses held yesterday at the University of Ibadan, UI, and Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti, EKSU, members of the union decided to continue with the strike action on the ground that the Federal Government’s offers are not acceptable to them.
According to reliable sources, the staff are not comfortable with the fact that only about one of the seven demands, which is the issue of staff schools of the universities was convincingly addressed by the government. Government only made promises as regards the other demands which do not show any difference from what was on ground before the strike.
As at the time of filing this report, UI was devoid of activities as all unions on campus both academic and non academic have embarked on indefinite strike.
A lecturer from EKSU said, “We have agreed that the strike must continue until the Federal Government is ready to grant our demands in practical way not in promissory act”.
In one of the interaction with the media after the last meeting the union had with the government, ASUU President, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi said that he could not determine when the union would call off its strike adding that calling off the strike would be determined by the entire members of the union.
However, the effects of the strike has began to manifest as some students who have secured employments have decided to abandon their academic programmes.
A Master’s Degree student of UI who did not want his name mentioned said, “I have been looking for a job for a while now. Because I don’t want to be sitting at home, I obtained a postgraduate form and I was admitted. We were about to start our exam when the strike action began. Now I have a job. I can’t trade the job with the Master’s prpogramme. If I decide to leave the job and go back to school when the strike action is over, what gives me the impression that I will get a job as soon as I am through with the Master’s programme? I will do the Master’s programme when it is more convenient”.
Another student said, “I am considering private university, maybe BABCOCK or Lead City University. Government universities in Nigeria are becoming a problem and time waster. Unfortunately, we don’t have responsible government who will be ready to do what the unions are asking for. First, people in government will chose to embezzle people’s money or mismanage it rather than using it for public good. Since Nigeria has been in recession, have you heard political office holders reducing their salaries and allowances? Go to the National Assembly, and see the exotic cars they are buying. Their salaries are been paid as at when due. Under the nose of President Muhammadu Buhari, those in the executive are also stealing. How many thieves will Buhari catch? Except the system is working, nothing good can come from Nigeria”.
To some female students, the strike action is a blessing to them as some pregnant female students delivered babies. One of them said, “I thank God because I don’t know how I would have coped. I gave birth within two weeks the strike action commenced. That means that I would have given birth to my child while my first semester examination is on-going. This means that I might have not been able to write all my papers. So you can see now that it is a blessing for me. If the strike action is called off now, at least I can sit for my exam and graduate when my mates are graduating”.

SIX LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES TO LEARN FROM AN EAGLE....

SIX LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES TO LEARN FROM AN EAGLE....

1. Eagles fly Alone and at High Altitudes.
They don't fly with sparrows, ravens, and other small birds.

MEANING; Stay away from narrow-minded people, those that bring you down. Eagle flies with Eagles. Keep good company.

2. Eagles have an Accurate Vision. They have the ability to focus on something as far as 5km away. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it.

MEANING; Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacles and you will succeed.

3. Eagles do not Eat Dead things. They Feed only on Fresh Prey.

MEANING; Do not rely on your past success, keep looking for new frontiers to conquer. Leave your past where it belongs, in the past.

4. Eagles Love the Storm.
When clouds gather, the eagle gets excited, the eagle uses the storms wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift itself above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the branches and leaves of the tree.

MEANING; Face your challenges head on knowing that these will make you emerge stronger and better than you were. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid of challenges, rather they relish them and use them profitably.

5. Eagles Prepare for Training;
They remove the feathers and soft grass in the nest so that the young ones get uncomfortable in preparation for flying and eventually flies/ when it becomes unbearable to stay in the nest./

MEANING; Leave your Comfort Zone, there is No Growth there.

6. When the Eagle Grows Old,
His feathers becomes weak and cannot take him as fast and as high as it should. This makes him weak and could make him die. So he retires to a place far away in the mountains. While there, he plucks out the weak feathers on his body and breaks its beaks and claws against the rocks until he is completely bare; a very bloody and painful process. Then he stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers, new beaks and claws and then he comes out flying higher than before.

MEANING; We occasionally need to shed off old habit no matter how difficult, things that burden us or add no value to our lives should be let go of.

NEVER GIVE UP,
BE AN EAGLE

Dear sir/ma,

Dear sir/ma,

Join US to celebrate the International Peace Day on September 21st 2017 at the Media Centre, National Stadium, Lagos      

“Together for Peace: Respect, Safety and Dignity for All.”

It prevents people — and societies — from achieving their full potential.” “Together, let us stand up against bigotry and for human rights. Together, let us build bridges. Together, let us transform fear into hope.”

Community Agenda For Peace is a Nigerian registered grassroot non-governmental organisation working in the area of PEACE building, Deepening DEMOCRACY and sustainable ENVIRONMENT.

Each year the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on 21 September. The General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples.

The event is a civil society driven shuttle diplomacy in public peace building and conflict prevention with peace advocates drawn from civil society groups, government agencies, the media and other key stakeholders to build a new community of leaders generating cutting edge strategies for public peace, conflict prevention, leadership and development.

How do we make our society more peaceful, just and inclusive? How do we support innovative people-to-people confidence-building and help create an environment conducive to fostering public peace, stability and human security?

The 2030 Agenda contains the shared commitment from all UN Member States to keeping people safe, to ensuring the fair administration of justice in accordance with the rule of law, and to building genuinely inclusive institutions that provide people a voice in the decision-making processes that affect them.

This year’s celebration (a symposium on leadership, development, public peace building and conflict prevention) is planned to have a strong focus on peaceful, just and inclusive societies recognising that there can be no peace without sustainable development and no sustainable development without peace.

Participants at the event will be engaged in an inclusive exchange of information through DANCE, DRAMA & POETRY on fundamental issues of (1) Effective planning for peace and conflict prevention (2) Sound institutional structures for sustainable peace (3) Public and private partnerships with organisations.

Titled: DREAM

Titled: DREAM

Dream, a long chain of goal,
Dueling the mind and the soul.

Can't you see the power of dream?
Keeps awake all night till the beam.
With energy full of vigour,
To do all without rigour

Unlimited space in the heart,
But wider way in the earth.
All comes with the dream,
To achieving all to the brim.

It takes a light mind to dream,
But a strong soul to win.
Nothing good comes easy,
Stay firm without getting messy.

Dream till you have nightmare,
Push till you're sure of getting there.
No man can stop a moving train,
As the blessing of dream is like rain.

As I drop my pen of honour,
Rise to the top with favour.
Enrich your mind and soul
Because, dream is a long chain of goal.

Jude Idada writes:

... Two things stuck out to me on my way back to Toronto.

Firstly, in Frankfurt where I stopped over on transit since I was flying Lufthansa, there were a lot of Nigerians.

Young Nigerians.

A couple of them with their mothers.

On their way back to school in Canada.

I got talking to a mother and her two twin daughters and a son.

She was excited that I was living in Canada and wanted me to keep an eye on her children for her.

Then the introductions began.

Meet this... meet that.

Somehow all these kids seemed to know each other.

47 children in all.

Children of the Rich.

The mother had said to me earlier...

"It's worth it spending the extra money it cost for them to school abroad, at least you are sure of quality education and no strikes. At the end of it all, unlike the UK, in Canada, they can ultimately become Canadians. Because with the way Nigeria is going those who have money and sense must invest in alternatives."

The poor have no alternatives but to argue over tribe, religion and political affiliations, while the rich and the powerful are preparing to abandon ship.

I mused silently to my myself before I said to her.

"But the private universities don't go on strikes, and their quality seems pretty good."

She laughed.

"Let the ones with new money send their children there after all they have to protect them from the sickness in that country but we who God has blessed so richly, we have to differentiate ourselves and our children from the masses if we hope to get the masses to continually give us access to power."

"To power?"

"Of course people trust what they hope to become and not what they are. The more different, rich and successful you are the more the common man will trust you with their future.  That is why the truly rich must invest in their children in as different a way from the way the ordinary man invests in their own children if they want to perpetuate their wealth and hold on to power. It is called succession planning."

I allowed the words sink into me with an expressionless face.

She continued.

"You an intelligent young man. You surely must agree with me that power and wealth if not consolidated and defended will be lost and the only hope of the poor is that the rich remain rich from one generation to the next so that informed leadership is guaranteed and the chaos that ensues when the poor are led by the poor is prevented. Look at the Niger Delta and the East where charlatans have risen to positions of power; see the raucous and mayhem they have enshrined. Only we who were born into power and wealth know how to control it and use it for the common good because power and money is a spirit and it will destroy the unprepared."

I was flummoxed.

"Did you say that you are a home manager?"

She laughed.

"Of course I am. I take care of the home while my husband brings in the funds. People are always surprised when I speak, they think all home managers are dumb, little do they know that it is the woman in the shadows that is the power. We are the puppeteers. The whisperers. The kingmakers. Especially if we have breeding. The same breeding I am giving to my daughters so that whatever they decide to do in their future they will do it exceedingly well. Since they will understand the secrets of acquiring, keeping and mastering power to perpetuate the family legacy."

"Everything has an end."

"Not when you plan ahead, and you prepare even the unborn for its inheritance. No one is born to lead, we are taught to lead. And that is the difference between the nouveau riche and the elites. The elite has proven that we have through time mastered the art of making money and acquiring power, not as an end in itself but as a tool of the ultimate."

"What is the ultimate?"

She smiled.

It was barely discernable then she whispered.

"Control."

I let it sink in.

"Why aren't you flying in your own private jet?"

Again the smile flashed across her face.

"That is what those who chase money and.power for its sakes will do. All loud and ever so obvious. But we who have evolved past that through generations of breeding live outwardly rich enough to be respected yet private and anonymous so that we can control events and people without being identified as the ones who are in control. That way we are safe and in most cases even protected by the people who we control, without their knowing that their fates are in our hands. It is the masterstroke. Always have the used take the fall for the user..."

She looked at her finely manicured index finger as though it was a creature of its own and with the other hand, she ran the fingers over the large gem stone that was on her index finger, smiled, then she continued.

"You put people in front to take the glory and shame, while you stay behind with all the power so that the people are focused on what they see and not on what they do not see. They will remove the ones they see in the name of change, but we who they do not see will forever control them. You see why there are no private jets for me?"

I nodded.

She smiled once again.

"Just like my father, and his father before him, and his father before him, we will not be seen."

Her words swirled around me like fireflies as she spoke on and on, after which she said as though in an afterthought.

"There is something about you that makes people who barely know you trust you. I don't know what it is but you are very easy to talk to."

I smiled in appreciation.

"You should learn to make it work in your favour."

I smiled again.

"I can teach you if you want."

There was a stillness as the offer hung in the air. And it was in the midst of that inconclusive silence that they announced the boarding of our flight.

After a proliferation of niceties and promises, we boarded the plane, and the mother and her children sat in business class.

Several other children and their mothers were also in Business class.

Two of the children sat in First class.

Most of them sat with me in premium economy.

During the flight, I had walked down economy class, and not one of the children sat in the filled to capacity economy class.

It was even more instructive this thinking of the Nigerian bourgeoisie.

An inheritance of 'classism' and 'elitism" being passed down from parents to children.

Everything screaming - we are different, and it is your duty as our children to perpetuate the difference by any means possible so that the family legacy lasts on and on.

The second thing that stuck out to me on my flight to Toronto was the man who sat beside me.

He was white haired.

Tall, partially tanned and had a childish playfulness in his eyes.

His wife sat beside him.

They were continually tactile in their affection to one another.

Endearing.

An old couple still in love.

And as we flew west bound, we talked.

He told me that he is a musician.

He plays the saxophone and the harmonica with a band back home in New Zealand.

He also said that he is an Economist and an emeritus Professor.

Currently writing a book on a new economic model which espouses a fairer system of distribution of wealth that was based on good neighbourliness, protection of nature and individual needs. A system that guarantees a universal basic income whether you work or not and one that redefines what it means to be wealthy. Hence money will no longer be what wealth is based on but on how much you can affect the life of the common man. So the man or woman who finds the cure for cancer will have a global credit which makes them have a higher purchasing power in the universal financial exchange than a man or woman who profiteers from the felling of trees or the burning of fossil fuels.

What blew my mind was when he told me that he is a former Governor of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand... Which is the Central Bank of New Zealand.

A former Central Bank Governor flying in Premium Economy - I was flabberwhelmed.

A former Central Bank Governor now living as a musician - I was in awe.

He could see the depth of my amazement and laughed.

"Why are you so surprised?"

I found my voice from the vortex of my surprise and spoke.

"I can't believe you are sitting here with me. I mean in my country Nigeria, you will be in First Class or even riding a private jet."

He looked at his wife, and both laughed like mischievous brats salivating over a juicy secret only they knew about.

Then he turned to me.

"You know that is what we use to say when I went to all those meetings with other Central Bank Governors in the world. The Africans stayed in the Presidential suites of the finest hotels, flew in with private jets, spent money as though they printed it by themselves and for themselves, and we use to call them the Emperors..."

I just kept shaking my head in astonishment as I listened to him.

"... that is why my book and theory is so important. We need to build a new world that values the goodness of our hearts over the depth of our pockets. We need a world where wealth is not what is inherited by our children but the capacity to do good and stand up for your fellow man. We need a world anchored by love, with love and for love, where everyone is more equal than they are now or they were in the past. Where you are known for not just your name and deeds but by the goodness associated with it. And you are wealthy because through you, others are wealthy in mind, spirit and body."

I sat there listening to him and remembering what the Nigerian lady had told me barely hours before and my heart was gladdened because right there during my journey, I had encountered darkness and then light.

And the light gave me hope.
