President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu to end the industrial action taken by ASUU and other unions on universities.
The President summoned the strikers so he can find out more about why the strike lasted for too long.
ASUU had been on strike for over a month because they believed the federal government was not meeting their demands.
After being briefed by the President, the education minister was ordered to decipher the disagreements within two weeks.
The President said that Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labour and Employment, should be present at meetings to resolve this crisis.
One union worker stated that the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, should be part of a team to interface with the striking unions. The other worker seemed to share the sentiment, stating that Ms. Bush is a “verbose person” who was too deep in politics.
In attendance at the meeting were Ministers of Education, Finance and Labor, as well as Communications, with the Head of Service for Federation. The Union Budget Office was also in attendance.
