ASUU agreed to call off lingering strike by December 9 – Chris Ngige
ASUU: With all the happenings and postponement, the federal government has denied claims made by the president of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi, that it has failed to honor the promises made for it to call off its eight-months-old strike.
In a media chat, Ogunyemi stated that the union is yet to call off the protracted strike as the federal government has not fulfilled any of its promises to it.
The body argues that the Federal Government, I’m its latest offers to its leadership, pledge to pay N40 billion as Earned allowance and N30 billion for the revitalization of the university system, bringing the total payment to N70 billion.
ASUU also argued that the government also agreed to settle the arrears of salaries of the lecturers before December 2020, but after due consultation with the government side.

In a statement released on Monday, December 8. The minister of Labor and employment, Chris Ngige said it is unfair for the academic body to take such a claim.
Ngige added that ASUU had at its last meeting on November 27, agreed to call off the strike before December 9 but failed to honor the promise.
In a statement;
“The truth of the matter is that a ‘gentleman agreement’ was reached at the last meeting in which ASUU agreed to call off the strike before December 9, 2020, and the Minister, in turn, agreed that once the strike is called off, he would get a presidential waiver for ASUU to be paid the remainder of their salaries on or before December 9.”the statement read
Ngige said it is false and discomfiting for ASUU to wrongly inform the public that the government agreed to pay all withheld salaries before it will resume work, stressing that the timelines attached to the various offers made to the union had been complied with.
Added again that;
“For instance, the Federal Government promised to constitute a Negotiation Committee for the 2009 Agreement and has fulfilled it with the last week’s inauguration of the committee that has Prof Muzali as chairman.
The N40b Earned Academic Allowances have also been processed just as the N30b revitalization Fund, bringing it to N70 billion. Likewise, the Visitation Panels for the Universities have been approved by the President but the panel cannot perform its responsibilities until the shut universities are re-opened.
The gazetting is also being rounded off at the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation while the Ministry of Education is ready to inaugurate the various visitation panels.” the statement in part read

Nevertheless, the man came back the following day in an attempt to get the remaining sum of money they had promised to pay him.
Now that they knew about his deception, the inhabitants beat him to barely an inch of his life.

“Why men need side chics” – Preacher reveals, netizens react
Nigerian preacher has mentioned the four important reasons why a man needs a side chick
The pastor explained in an Instagram video that, despite what is commonly believed, men need women by their sides in addition to their marriages.
He disclosed the four key reasons for side chicks’ importance.
The first explanation offered by the pastor was stupidity. He said that having side chicks is the finest way for a man to look dumb.
In response to a question about why guys are still searching for Coke after they have one, he pointed out that Coke in a bottle, can, or plastic is still Coke.
He identified premature death as the second reason why males require a side chick.
According to the preacher, a guy who wishes to pass away too soon must overwork his heart and stuff his body with unnecessary items.
He mentioned shame and embarrassment as additional reasons. A man who enjoys dishonor and shame, according to him, needs a side chick because that’s what he will eventually get.
According to him, a man should only require a side chick if he enjoys difficulty and turmoil.
