The Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, said the Federal Government has sorted out issues with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), adding that the ‘no-work-no-pay’ policy is the only condition delaying the truce.
The minister said this Thursday at the 47th session of the State House Briefing organised by the Presidential Communications Team in Abuja.
According to him, four of five unions in the tertiary institutions across the country had agreed to call off strike within the next week.
Regarding compensating students for time wasted from the six-month strike, the minister said ASUU should be held responsible for that.
The minister stated, “the affected students should ‘take ASUU to court’ to get compensated for the time wasted.
