The President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANs), Asefon Sunday, said the extension of the strike by ASUU because of their six months salary showed that they are wicked and heartless because 85 per cent of their demands have been acceded to.
Sunday said: “We met with the executive secretary of the NUC and the minister of labour who told us that 85 per cent of their demands have been met and all efforts to meet with the ASUU leadership have been turned down by them.”
In a telephone interview with Daily Trust the student leader said: “I have messages I sent to him and he is not ready to meet with us. I remembered when I went to meet my vice chancellor to tell him we want to meet with the leadership of ASUU and he called him and spoke to him but nothing happened.”
“People will be thinking that what ASUU is asking for is for proper funding of education, yes, revitalisation is part of what they are demanding for, but 85 per cent of the demands are for the welfare of the members of ASUU,” he stated.
