The Academic Staff Union of Universities has blamed former military dictator, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida for the current problems bedeviling the nation’s education sector.
The union believed that the former military President presided over what it described as the dictatorship of the International Monetary Fund and Structural Adjustment Programme, whose policies were used to “kill public schools” in the late 1980s.
The union, which said its four-month-old strike would continue until government shows genuine commitment to the 2009 agreement, also called on government to reject “the reintroduction of SAP through the back door.”
The chairman of ASUU, Obafemi Awolowo University, Prof. Ade Akinola, in a statement on Monday, said the government should show patriotism and ensure that the university teachers returned to work.
