ASUU STRIKE :Reply: Federal Government to Forcefully Open Universities, With or Without ASUU

Reports came in few days ago which stated that Federal Government had declared it would forcefully open all universities with or without "ASUU".
    If these reports were valid, then I have  a question to ask .
                           

        "Was there a time Nigerian Universities were declared closed?"


 We have to face the issue at hand and stop making statements that  are quite impossible. Now, you say that schools would be forcefully re-opened. Nigerian varsities were never closed the issue that has been in place for the past four months is that of the Academic Staff Union going on strike , and not of universities being closed down. If the government said they would forcefully continue academic activities it would have made a little meaning. The problem here still is, how would the government commence academic activities if the Lecturers are still on strike, or are they implying that lecturers from "space" (sorry for that expression) would be employed and all the lecturers that have been on strike shall be automatically  fired or replaced. What about the years of experience , what about the existing systems, what about the already established student-teacher relationships. Where would the Federal Government start from,we have so many public universities in Nigeria which implies that it would require a Labour-Bank of lecturers from where I do not even know to make it possible.
  
   Feel free to correct me, but I think that if such an action is taken students may not be back in school even by 2017. To cut the long story short, the continuation of academic activities in all institutions in Nigeria without ASUU  is practically impossible.

  What I think the Federal Government should do is take this issue very important, most things money is spent on in Nigeria are just selfish acquisitions. Let me not talk about the recent case of the aviation minister,or other past reports of activities of certain corrupt government officials. Reports have it that most poltical office holders do not have their children school in Nigeria,those that do,send their children to private universities.   Please, what about the masses who can't afford that, the same people who put you in office to represent them and make their lives better.

 This is Nigeria, this is our country, we are toiling with the lives of generations to come. Education is a key sector in Nigeria and we have to resolve this issue and stop chasing shadows. I'm not in support of either ASUU or The Federal Government all I am pleading for is that this case should be resolved so that the students of Nigeria can go back to school.
