ASUU will end strike within a week, Oshiomhole says

Thank you Mr. Oshiomhole for your intervention,i sincerely hope the issue is resolved within a week like you said.We will be waiting anxiously for the outcome.

We thank God that this issue is gradually coming to an end, because it has brought a form of reproach to our educational sector to the outside hope. We just hope we will be able to prove our critics wrong, after everything. We just hope this mutual agreement b/w FG and ASUU, would be for the best. I appeal to both parties to do all they can to compensate the wasted months. Long live FG, long live ASUU, and long live NIGERIA. ITS WELL!

I thank GOD for what the peoples governor was able to do .that is what statesmanship is about.Our elders and past leaders should learn from that.

Good news! But "within a week" sounds nebulous. Will the strike be called off within a week this year or next? Pardon my skepticism. This week has been a good one. Peace, however fragile, is returning to the Niger Delta. Hopefully PHCN will crank up some megawatts. Not bad for a 49-year old (excuse the cynicism). All said, God bless Naija!

i hope this is 4 real.i cant wait to go back to school;Oshiomole has done it again.

OSHIOMOLE has fixed it.thank u sir!

Thanks be to the Almighty GOD, for having a hot cake like Adams.

happy to hear this..........

its about time, i hope ASUU got their due and didnt compromise though

God bless oshemole! But a week sounds like a century to our ears now, because we can't wait to resume classes.

wow this is what we have been waiting for i really want to thank the Gov of Edo stste,the Asuu and the federal govt for comin to a compromise at last we'reso greatful this is what we all have been waitng for

I was so elated 2 hear this good news. Thanks 2 all the disputing parties.

Adams Oshiomhole thank you very much indeed. May you live for ever! This is the best news so far and a worthy independence gift to students, who have suffering because of a rift not caused by them, and parents whose wards have been idling away at home. Now, we expect sanity in our education sector because only that will guarantee our nation's development. Kudos to all who have participated in the struggle!!!!

may this come to pass.

well good news but one week may turn out to be two months. well nevertheless lets keep our fingers crossed.

God will bless you Adam for coming to our rescue

I would like that the strike be called off, but I want to urge ASUU to be sure of whatever decision they arrive at in three days. This is the Nigerian "government" here.

God bless Adam for coming to our rescue

3 gbosa gbosa gbosa for the pples Governor.Thank u sir Mr masses. shame to our leaders

I would like that the strike be called off, but I want to urge ASUU to be sure of whatever decision they arrive at in three days. This is the Nigerian "government" here.

Thanks to God Almighty for giving us a Great, Understanding man, full of wisdom. I'm happy 2 hear a week the strike will be over, i pray it should not past a week.

I would like that the strike be called off, but I want to urge ASUU to be sure of whatever decision they arrive at in three days. This is the Nigerian "government" here.

I cant believe that the strike is ending glory be to God almighty and i pray that this kind of situation will not arise again in our dear country. Thanks 2 Adams, thanks 2 FG, n thanks 2 ASUU, GOD BLESS U ALL.

This is how is suposed to be . We hv no one to thank except God who prevail on the two parties

..........UNTIL THEN.

Thank God that the strike will be call off, but asuu should not just accept a mouth talk agreement but they should see that the agreement is being carried out for good education standard.

I m happy 2 hear this, I apprciate ur intersesory role Adams Oshiomole, its landmark achievements.

I want thank mr oshiomole for his effort over resolving the on going strike, i just hope it ends within a week..

Adams,have a plank in his eyes and he is removing someone else piece of sand,AAU and primary schools in his state was on strike b4 Asuu,though lets hope the hav positive agrement.

I want to appreciate governor Oshiomhole,minster of education Sam egwu and the union's president uwazie ukachukwu for their intervention in solving this long strike. We the student will appreciate if the strike is called off in the following week. God bless u all

peoples govr God will adamnise u 2 d place of welcome, thanks 4 ur intervention btw FG and ASUU. I was so glad 2 hear dis good news,

i hope all this are not just political ways of giving students hope. i heard days now am hearing week before you know it months then year.

I hope this is True because thank God for Adams Oshiomole intervention but you guys should act fast because a week sound like a century to me.

I thank God 4 giving us a father like ADAMS,& thanks 2 adams 4 helping out.may GOD bless every 1 of u.but.........we re waiting.

Best independence gift to Nigerian student. We just pray that this wil mark the end of strikes in our universities (Amen).

There is on gain saying the fact that this is actually a good piece of news for the Nigerian students who have been made to suffer to a high extent of frustration and psychological trauma. Comrd. Adams Oshomole has shown that he is a real unionist to the core. His quick intervention has inevitably scored him a high political and social point. I hope this is not a cosmetic remedy that will collapse in on time. Government should invest massively in education. My fellow students, this is time for us to show that we are different from this generation of corrupt leaders by being upright in our dealings. God bless NIGERIA

Once Oshiomole is involved, there's element of reliability. But let's wait and see

I jst cnt w8.my bags r already packd.thnk u mr oshiomole 4rescuin us.

Thank God.Gov. Osiomole,more power to your elbow

wat a great news! i hope dis is 4 real, thanks to vibrant oshiomole luv u sir.

: God help them to solve the strike issue : AMEN.

papa,7p agenda can never be achieveable without education,ask america she will tell you.im dieappointed,dont repeat.A+ to adams!

Well this is good news that should be recieved with a lot of trepidation.the saying 'where two elephants fight the grasses suffer' has indeed held in this bitter faceoff between asuu and the fedral government.pardon my skepticism and pessimistic demeanour-but i detected a weak tone of conclusion to this issue since the strike is still to be suspended instead of forging a final solution.as students we have suffered enough and the elephants have forgotting that the grass is their means of survival.what happens when this grasses are killed?

Best independence gift to Nigerian student. We just pray that this wil mark the end of strikes in our universities (Amen).

Thanx to God almighty for everything...i would have said that what happened is too bad but since every problem is meant for some people to learn from, i hope that ASUU Dons ve learnt there lesson; and on that ground i urge them to shine there eyez on their decision this time around.Do not allow urselves to be decieved by anybody...if FG ve agreed, make sure that everything is properly documented.

Well i trust Mr adams but hope fed govt will not fuck up.

God bless Adams Oshiomole for the intervention. I just hope things return to normalcy. I also hope that the Govt. would do exactly what they promise and not after wasting our precious time at home, the system would be worse than before. May God help us.

Indeed i am relieved to have read the words above, i want to thank everybody that shew concern in this matter and i hope and believe that we go back to school soonest.

For some reasons, i'm inclined not to be so ecstatic. If the reasons for the strike are not adequately addressed(or a clearcut plan towards same drawn) the past 3months have a total waste of everybody's time and the future of Nigeria's universities is in hopeless jeopardy.That, to me, is more important than a speedy resolution of an ill-managed strike.

ASUU are triyin their best 2 reposition education, but dis federal elements are jeopardizin their effort. What a shame 4 a country @ 49, yet 2 know d importance of funding education sector. They should have waited 4 Obama 2 join to beg them.

adams you are GOD sent,i know you will intervain in these isuue,bcos you are one of the few nigerian who have the fear of GOD deep down...kudos to you sir...remain bless sir

Thank God for He has answerd our prayers. n tanks to the pples gov. COMRADE ADMS OSHIOMOLE...kudos...c u guys at the top

adams you are GOD sent,i know you will intervain in these isuue,bcos you are one of the few nigerians who have the fear of GOD deep down...kudos to you sir...remain bless sir

I will be glad if that comes to past,thanks

Am indeed greatful dat despise the level of corruption we still av those who av d luv of nigeria student in heart thank u mr governor sir

all tanx to oshiomole

I strongly hope that what the Amiable governor of my state said is something to write home all about. We are tired of been tossed all about,we don't even have an idea of whose word we should rely on. May God help us in this country,sincerely it is high time we should move forward(49 years of struggling).

we students should very grateful...but then we hope we not just getting high hopes for nothing......this new generation needs to progress and help build a better nation but you old folks just wont let us

If an agreement has been reached, why will they continue to strike for another week? Sounds weird. And why did a state governor have to intervene in a national strike? Where was the ministry of education in all this?

fuck up....why now? i taught they could have held longer maybe till um....next year december at least i could have saved enough money, 4 a wife, and my kids....

At last Students can return back 2 skool within a week. May God bless his exellency comrade adams oshomole 4 his positive intervention. We luv u.

Why were all the issues not resolved first; this "suspension" is only postponing the evil day

I really Thank God for this meeting. And hope there will lasting peace between both parties. i wait anciously to resume school at University of Abuja soon. May God bless Oshiomole.

This news is an answer to prayers of many Nigerians. I hope FG/ASUU pact would bring a lasting solution to myriads of accumulated problems in Nigerian University system. Thanks Adams, ASUU and Federal govt.

Adams, you're the man. God bless you & thanks 2 Asuu & FG. Finally I can think straight.......... all my bags are packed, I'm ready 2 Go...

Adamu has demonstrated again that he is number one in leadership in nigeria. But should make sure federal govt does not spoil his name.we beleive the news b'cos it was from him. Let him also watch his word to bring it to come to pass up adamu onye egwu ka-ibu

May God in his infinite mercy bless governor adams oshomole....Amen

struggle continue, we shall be happy to hear the strike called off. thanks to asuu and federal government.

THANK GOD THAT THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED, I HOPED THAT INSURANCE COVERS THEM IN ALL AREAD WEATHER STRIKE OR NO STRIKE, MEANWHILE WE WILL BE ROUNDING OFF OUR SECOND SEMESTER EXAMINATION. THANK YOU GOVERNOR.

whao!! d 1st significant,though not satisfactory, breakthru in respect of d soon 2 be called off strike. wat i'ld say is dat ASUU should ensure it doesn't fall into FG's plan. their purpose 'll be forfeited and their time wasted if they settle for less. from foresight i know nigeria will be better if we students stand behind ASUU in their struggle 4 their basic right.

Am glad smtin positive is comin out finally,al tanx 2 Gov Oshiomole d man wit d people's concern at heart, God bles u sir.and pls FG nd ASUU let ur 1 wk be 1 wk oh!we don tire 4 house.YEMI ,RSUST

Adams,u'v done well.i pray d suspensn graduat directly into 'strike over'.we need this kind of hope 2 keep us away 4rm insanity.anyway ASUU,we hav already invested 3months,we can as well fight til d end,til we get what we want

U people should not cal it of just allow it too get 2 2011 since ghana can do so we are capable more over is d asuu chairman children in nigeria dey ar al in kenya

All thanks to Adams Oshiomole, you are forever a Negotiator.

Just hope we get back to classes within a week.....FG, ASUU , OUR LEADERS I am tired of staying at home.........I dey BEG OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i pray this works out,let us wait 4 ASUU's NEC meeting.

Thank God 4 his interventn in dis matter.i pray dis shouldn't pass 1 week as said.Mr. Adams thank u but after dis, help us wit our 'BURSARY'.

what can we say to you Adams Oshiomole other than thank you for bringging out positive move on the issue

Adams,u too much,All eyes are on u for better Governance. We believe u,More grease to ur elbow,thank u very much and ur reward will soon come without consulting a prophet.

Thanks for the intervention of Com. Adams Oshiomole cos i believe if he was still the NLC prseident the labour congress would have enjoined ASUU in the strike and things would have been in shape before now but all the same Thank you Sir.

Thanks oshomole for ur intervention may Allah reward u with goodness.

That is good news,am so elated that the country we serve is starting to make sense.Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria...ALUTA INTEGRAL FUTMX

Thanks oshomole for ur intervention may Allah reward u with goodness.

I am pleased over the good news. Thank you gov. Adams. I am not surprised over what you can do. tnx

May God bless Adams and touch d hearts of other leaders too.

thanks to the edo state government for their intervention and we hope that the assu strike will be called off.

i hope this is for real, please govt should help us to help our future.

Hmm... I don't seems 2 be intrigued. Lets wait till this comes true b4 we start 'raising d roof'. Sorry 2 say, i don't trust these guys. I'm positive abt this though, 'cos it is imperative to be. What do u think... 9ja.

May God Almighty reward you..............you are indeed a true leader....Thank you....can't wait....

VICTORY @ LAST, THIS IS JUST THE BEGINING OF BETTER THINGS TO HAPPEN IN NIGERIA. GOD BLESS ME, GOD BLESS OSHIOMOLE, GOD BLESS ASUU, GOD BLESS FGN AND GOD BLESS NIGERIA

I'm glad that the lugjam is eventually giving way. Thanks for Adams Oshiomole intervention. But it baffles me that we had to wait for three months for this to happen. The government of Yar' Adua should be more proactive and sensitive to the plight of Nigerian. Thats is why he is on the driving seat. Before now it would have been glaring that you needed a team of the likes of Com. Oshiomole to bring this bottleneck negiotiation and the unreliable tendencies of Yar'Adua govt to a logical agreement. There people of substances and respects all over this country. You must learn to use them effectively where they are able to make a difference. You are just too slow for my liking.

Thank God for Adams i pray this impediment will reverse our educational sector. I'm still waiting!

we tank almighty allah 4 hearing this wonderful news that we are waiting 2 hear 4 long. Allah bless our competent lacturers. Ameen

there is need to put in place an institutional framework that will avert such occurrence. welldone MR Adams

good idea that requires caution.three gbosa to osiomole.

Sir Adams ure truely a "UNIONIST" live forever sir...

I realy want to give kudos to the edo state governnor Adams oshiomole he has shown the characters of a true leader 'kudos again' and also thank God that this face off of to elephants is finaly being resolved.but still we must pray that our FG fulfils their the promise after asuu does their's,and not try to play tricks again.i realy hope that by the begining of the coming week universities will resume.in God we trust

It takes a wise man to know or understand that the survival of this nation is in the hand of the great Nigerian student just has gov. Adam did.Nigerians should note that the present administration has discovered the intention and mission of the great nigerin student,that we are coming up to put things in shape in this country in which they are not happy about,that's why they want to jeopardize the educational sector and thank God for His intervention through gov, Adams.OUR MISSION WILL NOT DIE WHILE WE ARE ALIVE TO SAVE THE FOOL COUNTRY @ 49 FROM THIEVES.

Kudos to everybdy FG, ASUU and others who have make d struggle for the student but let hope adam stick to his word. It be a grt dissapointment 2me if we neva resume next week cos me i don't the FG words, adam work i can still blieve. And 2 great nigerian student we shall meet again on campus in peace not in pieces. Thx. Fly safe and keep fix

this is good news indeed, lets just have faith that it will happen. i'll just like 2 use dis medium 2 advice al students of LADOKE AKINTOLA UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, OGBOMOSO 2 start readin 4 dere exams NOW!. b'cos i trust our VC, he dosnt waste time at all. THANK GOD!

Well, strongly beleive that what Oshiomhole has started will definitly yield positive result, i encourage him to please continue until he see the battle brought to an end.

Only the intervention as been heard,then y negotiation bhind closd doors,bt we av only bn earn witin a wk things wil come back to normal.NO kudos awardd by me yet nt until d +ve result s bn heard. Wel grtns to u Mr Adams Oshiohole 4 ur job u're doin.wish to hear gud nws n d comin wk.eager to get bk to skul.

I think Sam Egwu is a confounded big fool who should be relieved of his post...Adams Oshiomole you are the 'MAN'!!

Thank GOD i can finally return to school.

I am quite happy that the strike would soon be called off.This means that the educational system which is said to be dead has the hope of resurrection.thanks to all involved. But then,when will all this end?

I am quite happy that the strike would soon be called off.This means that the educational system which is said to be dead has the hope of resurrection.thanks to all involved. But then,when will all this end?

With God's name i beg them,i'm not getting any younger, i wan't to go back to school.

THANK GOD FOR THE COMRAD GOVERNOR MR. ADAMS ALIYU OSHOMOLE. MAY THE LORD GUIDE PROTECT HIM THROUGH OUT HIS TENURE, MAY THE LORD ALSO GIVE HIM IDEAS TO TAKE OUR STATE FOWARD.

Are you serious they are calling the strike off? so i can finally graduate? Pls Lord let this be confirmed, we need more people like Adams Oshiomhole in Nigeria.

OSHOMOLE, IS THE ANSWER

it is a great fulfilment for the nig student since alot of them are sick and tired of the whole saga. Tanx comrade O.

GLORY BE TO GOD.

God has made Adams a blessing to us. asuu cudos to you for being strong at the same time one week sounds like a century to me, please make it real.

Oshiomole Adams is such a blessing. Good job, but the fact remains that these guys cannot be trusted. lets wait and see if this is not politricks again.

ASUU strike over in a week?i hope.but ASUU shine ur eyes o!!!!if u dont win this war,you've lost forever and all ur struggles will be for naught.

while basking in the euphoria of possible call-off of the ASUU strike,we must not forget in a jiffy that the Non Academic Staff Union,NASU, and the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities SSANU are also on strike.if ASUU resumes,these unions must be attended to. 'they too are the earth'.they are part of the restructuring process,we all desire.let the resolutions and agreement be holistic, all-encompassing.

There is nothing to thank God 4,and no body 2 thank 4 now.ASUU infact should not go back 2 ciassroom unless government signs the almighty and everlasting agreement .If ASUU accepts 2 go back without insisting on govt signingup shame will be hers if by tomorrow govt disappoints her as usual.ASUU Boss be rational 4 once.GOD WILL NOT FORGIVE U IF TOMMORROW YOU CALL ASUU MEMBERS AGAIN 2 EMBARK ON INDUSTRIAL STRIKE on the same issue of dismai failure 2 sign an agrreement on the part of the FGN

It is said, 'all it takes for evil to triumph is for men of goodwill to keep quiet and do nothing in the face of moral crisis.' Thank u comrade Oshiomole

FG of Nigeria are good in makin speech n paper works, but 2 bad in implimentatin. Adams O, i hop u're in d middle and not on d side of FG? ASUU, get whatsoever u need now once and 4all. Sam Egwu should put down his resignation letter. finally, FG, ASUU, Sam Egwu should apologize 2d Nigerian Students.

Na wa fellow 9ja seems u've 4goten ur country ba? Any way lets just hop this wil be d last time w'll hear dis word ''very soon'' God bles 9ja God bles us all happy indipendence.

I hope and want to believe what i,ve read from this page is for real...but if Asu should call off strike what about LAsu Lol.....i just hope i resume soon

Infact Asu dnt go back...you guys should make sure this agreement is been sign cos our nigeria leaders they are so cunny in way where by later they will want some adjustment to be done you guys should nt resume and think twice before embarking

Mr oshimohle..ur just a blessing to this country.please run for president in 2011.

Am so short of words 2 xpress d way i feel nw.Asuu strike ends in a wk is unimaginable,i jst cnt wait 2 be consious abt school.God bless commrade Adams Oshiomole,he is really a patriot.I also want 2 thank FG and ASUU 4 a friendly enviroment 4 negotiation 2 resume.God bless Uyi,Oshiomole,FG and ASUU.Long live Nigeria,long live nigerians.

God bless commrade 4 his effort towards d resolving the issue.and i pray so dat both parties will agree with terms & condition of situation.

Kudos 2 u Mr Adams, u are d type this country should have as a leader. We hope the strike is over

Adams,u're an answer 2 pple's praya.More power 2 ur elbow,Godbless.

Thanks adams.God bless you.Alas the criminal issues of student due to idleness is settled

Only the intervention as been heard,then y negotiation bhind closd doors,bt we av only bn earn witin a wk things wil come back to normal.NO kudos awardd by me yet nt until d +ve result s bn heard. Wel grtns to u Mr Adams Oshiohole 4 ur job u're doin.wish to hear ud nws n d comin wk.eager to get bk to skul.

That's why Governor ADAMS can be our best president. Thank you sir, we all university student are grateful.

Oshio baba has demonstratd wot a true godfather looks like,it is not by amassing public money into private pocket and start oppressing d masses with it,it is it more intellectual than material,though I am in igbinedion,yet I am glad 4 those concerned.kudos to Father Oshiomole,aluta continua to ASUU,GREAT NIGERIAN STUDENTS

Oshio baba has demonstratd wot a true godfather looks like,

why are you all jubilating, if na asuu tommorow ma den go go back, so...

Thank God the ASUU strike will soon be over. I hope Adams Oshimole can intervane in the on going Teachers strike also. God bless Adams Oshimole

I just hope the Governor is ready to resolve the issue of the TSS.So that nut can go back to work.Kudos to the people's governor

Nigeria is a confused country.At 49 we should be bigger than unnecessary strike.Why the jubilation students?This strike is a slap to ur faces,they dont care about us.Politics has destroyed nigeria rather than making it better like other country.We always hope for the unrealistic.God pls help us frm 49years of madness...

Make them they decieve themself. If they like make them call the strike. The purpose of the strike was even vague b4.they have wasted my time already and i cant get it back.no thanks to any yeye person

why now let wait until next year

Thanks 2 Adams.we w8t anxiously...

I really appreciate the effort of the people s governor.Please he should also be man enought to tackle the problem of AAU.The state univerisy will not resume once ASUU resume next week because they have their internal problem.

I'm really glad ds is kmin 2 an end...my fears;i op FG is not deceiving us AGAIN, ASUU, pls be wise,u know wat u want!3mths is not a joke,lets v a cause console ourselves dat wv d wasted mnths, we got wat we wanted!

a 4year course becomes a 7years course.......well to tell the truth im indifferent because tomorrow we will all be back to square one.......annoying!

God bless u all involved in this strike ish. i can't wait to go back to school.

It is healthy news. But the fact that ASUU has to suspend its strike before things are tidied up means that ASUU has chickened out again and this means that we have not come to the end of strikes in a very near future. I did say - sometime ago - that you can, easily, bring the monkey out of the jungle but you may never bring the jungle out of the monkey. Knowing the mentality of our leaders, or rulers, and their culture of not respecting agreements - and in view of the fact that ASUU has held on for so long - I sincerely do not think ASUU will get, all or even half of, what it bargained for. And the more ASUU compromises, the more they will be treated as underdogs. There is no reason a minister such as Egwu should be more comfortable than a University teacher. And if Gov. Oshiomole, once a labor chief himself, will broker a truce where labor will be disadvantaged then we will say something is wrong with people who get to government positions in Nigeria. The effect of not giving education and education workers what is due for it is the continuous production of half baked graduates and this is not in the interest of a nation that touts any kind of vision, be it 2010, 2020, 3030, etc. My sense is that if ASUU has stayed this far, they should keep pushing until they get all that is good for them to be able to produce first class graduates which is one of major factors necessary for our national development. If our kids will suffer another 4 months stay at home and come back finally to a better learning environment, the sacrifice is worth it. Is it not incredible that in a country where the current President and the Education mister were once, and may still be, members of the academia in the nation’s highest institutions of learning, we are witnessing almost 16 weeks of non academic activities? And instead of resigning, a minister of education who has failed in his responsibility to bring about harmony in the sector was celebrating his wedding anniversary when his erstwhile colleagues are languishing in agony. Hear him out, "I believe that after this period, we shall witness rapid growth and development so that the desires of ASUU, that of government and all Nigerians would be achieved". We need four months for this when he was once a teacher. One would have thought that his becoming an education minister would have been a blessing to his colleagues and his, once cherished, profession. I am ashamed at the attitude of human beings, mostly black Africans, when once they get to positions of power.

I think its a good development for the Nigerian students but im still skeptical about all this because i dont see a promise fufilling nigerian government as this issue might be postponed to another administration thereby causing fresh problems then. I only hope ASUU can make then sign necessary agreements now or esle...

10x 2 u Adams

Thank God, for even the hearts of kings are in his hands.he has used his servant to do it again.long live Nigeria long live Adams Oshiomole

Long live oshomole long live nigreia.May the good LORD give u Joy, peace and long life for giving us(students) hope and reason to smile. THANK YOU SIR.

I think this is the right time to arise, we nigerians student against the "i don't care' attitude pragmaticed by the FG and the governors on the ASSU strike , though i am not surprised. Some of their children are in private schools, even some in foreign universities. Pls anybody who sees yar'dua, egwu and others t ell them 'that they had failed us'... God bless peoples governor ADAMS who wants to safe us 4rm protracted strick action. God bless u sir, God bless Nigeria, I luv u all. THANKS

IT TOOK AN ACTION CONGRESS GOVERNOR TO HALT THE ASUU STRIKE....PDP ITS TIME TO GO

On behalf all 9ja Students am saying kudos to the FG, ASUU & Adams my Governor 4 life for his concern about this ASUU issue.I must say @ this point that Adam" has again added to his worth in the sands of time... I just hope in optimism that this promises will hatch into reality... Long live FG, long live ASUU, Long live NANS...

Thank God for the intervention of Governor (Edo State). As for my own opinion i dont realy see any big deal of calling off the strike, i just want the agreement to be implemented. In fact take the case of my school Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike Abia State, the classrooms are dilapidated, outdated, and a class of about 100 student you see over 1700 students in the class. A class that is supposed to commenced 8 o;clock when you came 6:30 in fact you are absolutely late. You will find your self outside, there are no PAS (public address system) just a few lecture halls and at the same time the lecturers doesn't mind setting heaven and earth as there exams/test. A university that pretends to be God's own University where in a department; a student that sees his script will first be interested in the no. of carry overs instead of the grade, these lecturers that demands high amount of salary or increase in educational infrastructure should also consider that there type of duty is not the same as that of politician, a politician can be drunk and still deliver a speech, but a lecturer can not be drunk a still teaches. They said they want increase in welfare package fine, do you want to come to class with beer tommy? or driving hummer jeep and then that will give you the ability to fail student....

most people do not know that edo state of adams oshiomole state is having similar problems he is trying to solve. students have not been able to resume as a result of teachers strike. lets remove the log in our eyes first

Oshiomole as started making noise again. He has not really done any tangible thing in his state and now he his carrying FG wahala on his neck.

Alhamdulillah! Alhamdulillah! 5 gbosa for our father, master Adams oshomole for this great job. He is man that every body will be proud of him thank you daddy.

Thanks be to the Almighty GOD for using Adams Oshiomhole to interven on this strike matter Thanks Sir you are leader indeed. Sir ur just a blessing to this country.please run for president in 2011 thanks once again.

Thanks to Governor Adams Oshiomole but they just said it and it has not been done...so please we need it to be done asap, so everything can go back smoothly. Our Leaders should help the youths because they are the leaders of tommorrow. Thank you once again for talking about the strike.

Thank you Mr. Oshiomole for your consent in this matter. i'm very grateful and would be expecting changes by the period you said. Thanks , just hope Nigeria becomes great like i've always dreamt. Thanks Nigeria.

I wouldn't get too excited just yet! Hope they won't call off the strike just to call it back on in a few months time. How about the other striking unions? Have they also called their's off.

ASUU strike has always been a sad commentary to run....i am grateful to God it is coming to an end....Thanks to FG and ASSU and to my Great Governor, Adams Oshiomole for taking up this issue...long live Nigeria

ASUU strike has always been a sad commentary to run....i am grateful to God it is coming to an end....Thanks to FG and ASSU and to my Great Governor, Adams Oshiomole for taking up this issue...long live Nigeria

I wouldn't get too excited just yet! Hope they won't call off the strike just to call it back on in a few months time. How about the other striking unions?thank adams if not so d world cup will not hold.

In Jesus Name he prayed Amen. BUT Where is our of Minister of Education sorry that Ebonyi man abi na Abakiliki man.

A good development i wld say,our dear ASUU officials are not as bad afterall,they have acted reasonably because they have been treated reasonably............lets just say Governor Oshiomole has the word "Reasonable"in his dictionary.

THANK YOU JESUS-IN ADVANCE. Hope dis is not another case of d more u look d less u see. Anyhow, dis is d 1st stroke of hope since d strike begun.

i am glad chris pointed this out. ASUU backed out. NUT backed out. the problems have not been solved. just like in the delta. the government wants to have it its own way. the people must bow to government instead of government bowing to the people. it is unfortunate that we can't see the need for resistance to a government that DOES NOT CARE and has shown no evidence that it is going to care. PDP. AC. All the same.

Lets hope that this development will not lead to another deadlock, considering the federal government and their usual pranks. thumbs up to Gov. Oshimole!

Sam Egwu should be disappointed in himself!

I thanks God almight for every things and for the God sent man, Governor Oshiomole. I wish the strike should be over so that my sisters can go back to school. Thanks you Jesus in an advance.

this is actually a good news, we hope it materialize for the betterment of Nigerian students but permit me to say this, it is said, "if you want to kill a try, remove its root" the Fed. Govt. not keeping to promises made attitude is the major cost of demonstration and incessant strike action in Nigeria. i pray is born-again from this attitude to avoid future occurrence.

Thank you Adams. Oloruko rere! Egwu should be sacked!!!!!!!! He is shameless. Imagine, a man that could not settle problems in his family, until the head of another family came to his aid. Pls sack Egwu. EGWU MUST GO!!!!!!!

tanx to God for the commrade.i cant wait to get back to school.

We thank God for their undeerstanding and pray this will be the last strike in nigeria.. also great thanks to the edo state governor for his interferenes.. and we pray for this nation to be indeed the gaint of africa!!!

Oga Oshiomole, may u live longer that metusela, may ur children, children children never see evil. don't mind all this government official whom their children are abroad school. they think they can cause us brain drainage abi? their fada will not die well. We are tired of staying at home without doing anything, at time we will just be angry for nothing. we thank you Oga oshiomole 4 ur good work and the Asuu chairman for his stand in the asuu matter, May God bless us all and bless this country called NIGERIA because i am proud to be a Nigerian.

thank god d strike is comin 2 an end ,, at least no more negative happenings ,,,,,, lets c first b4 we start jubilating .......

Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the YAR'DUALISATION, to give thanks to ADAMSATION, and to triumph in your name o LORD.

well...it's a good thing that the strike will soon be called off but my worries still remain in the sense that the nigerian govt. is nothing to go by as they make promises they don't keep and then asuu should look into edo state where adams is governing and see that he has his own unsettled rifts with his workers....well God works in mysterious ways.....lol.

I must thank Adams for his contributions to the issue of education. Where a minister could not perform his job what do you think should happen to him? I strongly belief that one of the people to be paid well should be TEACHERS,DOCTORS before any other sector or persons.The Government should help its citizens in addreesing some thing now that we belief we have due-process and rule of law in the country.

Oshiomole's popularity will sky ocket if he pulls this through.

ASUU should make sure that all thier requests to the fed govt, are met, or else they would have only succeeded in postponing the evil day. Students out there; i understand your eagerness to return back to school but dont rejoice too much yet until ASUU officially announces this.if i were you, i'd keep my fingers crossed.

Oshiomole is already popular in the life on NLC as we all know. This will only be one of his doings. I pray it all works out fine,amen.

lets go there.thanks to oshobaba

Na today, Me don dey enjoy my father house jare.

Na today, Me don dey enjoy my father house jare.

It was with great expectation that read in the papers that the long overdue strike would be called off in a week. Thanks to Gov. Adams Oshiomole for his insightful intervention. I just hope that the proposed "one Week" would not be just like a fairy tale and I also wish that the ending of this strike would mark the beginning of a 'NEW DAWN' in Nigerian University Education.

Good to hear this from you Mr Oshi, cos we are all tired of this long time strike, pls let this be truth and make it real..........

that man Adams is a very strong man no word in the English Dictionary can describe you i admire ur dogged spirit and determination to break obstacle that has been placeed b4 you...it will never forget your worlds "tough times never last but the tough do"...

not until it is called off,it isn't called off. any time it suits baba FG,it suits me...tseuw!

Some people are being pessimistic about this instead of being optimistic. That ur own. As for me, MY HONOURABLE GOVERNOR IS THE BEST. I LOVE HIM. Long live ADAMS ALIYU OSHIOMHOLE, Long live ASSU, Long live EDO - STATE, Long live NIGERIA.

ASUU & FEDERAL TRY AND REACH A 50 50 AGREEMENT NOW....

Thank U Adams u are a kind hearted man. May God bless U. u put smile in the faces of students. we are grateful.

how i wish that this wonderful man called Adams Oshiomole will be taking care for anything called Education because of attitude towards ASUU and FG. I thank u mr. Governor are words must be trust.

how i wish that this wonderful man called Adams Oshiomole will be taking care for anything called Education in Federal Republic Of Nigeria. Because of his attitude towards ASUU and FG. I thank u mr. Governor are words must be trust.

i think ASUU should't settle less than 70-30 agreement, i supported asuu, they should fight to finished this time around, but thanks to comrade oshiomole.

how i wish these poor lecturers go on and on and on, but for the interest of the poor students and their parents who laboured through this country of confussion in educating their wards.our govt increase the price of everything using the gain to service their pockets rather than using it for the lots of the masses. Comrd Oshiomole well done but we are watching.

that is a great job kudos to every one ready to give peace a chance we hope what ASUU has fought for will be won so that ...the labour of our heroes past (and present) shall never be in vain....

Adam has realy tried for us thank u so much. Another issue now is that we should not use more than 3 month in a semester, if this issue can be solved it will be great. Thanks to all our leaders that has show concerned.

We thank God that this issue is gradually coming to an end, because it has brought a form of reproach to our educational sector to the outside hope. We just hope we will be able to prove our critics wrong, after everything. We just hope this mutual agreement b/w FG and ASUU, would be for the best. I appeal to both parties to do all they can to compensate the wasted months. Long live FG, long live ASUU, and long life to Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State.

Thanks Gov oshionmole for not let nigeria university collapse.

You made a name in nigeria labour congress also you made history in edo state now you have should every nigerian that you are really a God sent thanks for resolving the strike thathave affected most nigerian students long live our action governor !!! long live nigeria!!!

This goes to Mr Sam Egwu, I dispute your statement that at the end of every crisis there must be a development, should we in the first place go through this crisis over and over again, why haven't there be any developmemt(s) ever since we have been experiencing this strike issues for as long as Nigeria have been existing, hope this doesn't repeat its self again.

I have always known you to be a very capable man, I only have two Rulers i respect in Nigeria which are Governor Oshiomole of Edo state and Governor Fashola of lagos state, they are good example of a true leader, may you both live longgggggggggg, AMIN.

Thanks to our Governor's intervention, wouldn't have been possible with out you, God bless you sir.

Good to know that asuu as a body is now getting to understand that he who fights and run away shall live to fight anothert day because aluta continua.
