The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, has on Thursday, said that it is solely the responsibility of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to compensate Students of Public Universities in the country for wasting their time with its prolonged ongoing strike, and not the responsibility of the President Muhammadu Buhari Federal Government,
He also said that the Federal Government will not concede to the Union’s demand to pay Lecturers their emoluments for the 6 months of no academic activities.
Adamu suggested that the affected Students should “take ASUU to court” to claim damages incurred over the strike period.
The Education Minister stated this at the 47th Session of the State House Ministerial Briefing, organised by the Presidential Communications Team, at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, in Abuja.
