He made this known on Thursday, at the 47th Session of the State House Ministerial Briefing organized by the Presidential Communications Team at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.

According to him, the federal government bears no liability to compensate millions of students grounded for six months over lost time.

Adamu suggested that the affected students should “take ASUU to court” to claim damages incurred over the strike period.

He also said if the students are determined to get compensated, they should take ASUU to court.

He also said the government will not concede to the union’s demand to pay lecturers their emoluments for the six months of no academic activities.
