It has been revealed that the amount spent by the Peoples Democratic Party to rig to 2011 elections is more than what striking lecturers are asking for to return sanity to Nigeria's university system, but the government is not willing to do what is right.
“To meet ASUU demands will deny the party opportunity to stash more money from the national coffers for 2015 election.”A chieftain of the newly-registered All Progressives Congress in Niger State, Vatsa Jonathan, has accused the Federal Government of insincerity in its current face-off with ASUU.
“What the varsity teachers are asking for is a far cry to what the party spent to rig elections in 2011,” he said while speaking in Minna on Saturday.
He also described the Governor Gabriel Suswan and Senator Anyim Pius Anyim-led government negotiating committees as a bunch of unserious people, just as they were earlier described by ASUU leadership.
