The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has threatened to embark on another indefinite strike if the Federal Government fails to implement the agreement it reached with the union in 2009.
Addressing journalists at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, the Owerri zone of the union said it was deeply saddened that the Federal Government had failed to honour the agreement which it freely entered into.
The Owerri zone of ASUU comprises Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Imo State University, Owerri and Federal University of Technology, Owerri.
Coordinator of the union in the zone, Comrade Uzo Onyebinama regretted that government had taken for granted, the magnanimity the union extended to it through the signing of various Memorandum of Understanding, MOU, and Memorandum of Action, MOA, on the way forward for Nigerian tertiary education, warning that unless the government strives to resolve the issues sincerely, there will be no more MOUs or MOAs.
