The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to end the current strike in a same manner to former President Goodluck Jonathan.
According to Anaedoonline.ng, the strike started on February 14, 2022, as a result of the government’s failure to fully meet the union’s demands.
With no sign of an end in sight, the strike has already lasted six months.

In an interview with AIT’s Focus Nigeria, the union’s president, Emmanuel Osodeke, claimed that during the Jonathan administration, a 14-hour dialogue took place to resolve the problem.
He said: “Government should for once go the way of Goodluck Jonathan. And in one night, we had that meeting for 14 hours.
“Both sides were open, no class, no power, no sitting power, and we looked at all the issues and we resolved it within 14 hours.
“If this government can put out a strong team, if the president cannot be there, let him put a strong team together or people who are not part of those who are telling lies presently.
