ASUU STRIKE:WE ARE READY TO HELP END STRIKE- REPS
The Speaker of the House Representatives, Honourable Aminu Tambuwal, on Thursday, disclosed that the house was ready to amend any portion of the nation's law or grant any request of appropriations from the executives arm of government to accommodate the demands of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) so as to end the lingering strikes by the union.
The Speaker, who stated this after the presentation of the investigative reports to the House by the House Committee on Education, however advised all concerned parties in the strikes to reconsider their position in the interest of the student and the future of education in the country.
The Speaker said, "Once again, we call on ASUU and the Federal Government, in this case the executive arm of government to please, quickly bring the matter to an end and resolve it. And if there is any need for further appropriations to be made or any law to be amended to meet any of these conditions, the House of Representative is faithfully ready to expeditiously address such requests. Please, we need our students back to their respective schools. I so plead."
