The All Progressives Congress has described as "a cheap and ludicrous
strategy" the plan by the Federal Government to use market women,
religious leaders and even students to put pressure on the Academic
Staff Union of Universities to call off its strike.
APC said, "This infantile statement by the leader of the apparently
misguided market women is the most irresponsible statement that anyone
has made on the long-drawn ASUU strike, and it is a shame that the
government is the instigator of such nonsense.
"While indeed there are millions of jobless Nigerians, is it just any
jobless Nigerian who can be a university teacher? How does President
Goodluck Jonathan, himself a former university teacher, feel about
those apparently hired by his administration treating university
teachers with so much disrespect? Even if the government succeeds in
forcing the lecturers back to the classroom, can it force them to
teach effectively?"
