How Ngige Is Working To Destroy Public Universities- ASUU | READ DETAILS
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has accused Dr Chris Ngige, the Minister for Labour and Employment of wanting to destroy public universities, having hatred for the union and instigating the Federal Government against them.
The union made this allegation on Tuesday, while protesting the half salaries they received for the month of October after calling off their 8-month-old strike.
Addressing newsmen during the protest, the Lagos state branch Chairman, Dr Dele Ashiru, said;
‘‘Ngige is the agent provocateur; he is the one instigating the government against ASUU. He has inexplicable hatred against our union and that is the reason he turned our struggle to a personal fight.
“It was Ngige who poisoned FEC against our union. Ngige started the campaign of no-work no-pay against our union. Ngige dragged ASUU before the court; Ngige wrote Ministry of Finance to stop our salary and made it prorated.
He registered two stinker unions to weaken our union which was against the Trade Union Act. Ngige also wanted our union proscribed by suggesting that we have not been submitting our account. Ngige is out there to destroy public universities.’’
