ASUU Strike: Keyamo Slams PDP

Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo (SAN) has dropped a bombshell.

The erudite lawyer and the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council Spokesperson has blamed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).

Keyamo stated that ASUU is on strike because of the 2009 agreement signed by the PDP government.

Hear him; “The ASUU thing you are talking about. What is the problem of ASUU now? It’s the 2009 agreement signed by PDP government.”

“They signed agreements with ASUU they couldn’t fulfill. We had to inherit those agreements and now struggling to renegotiate those agreements.”

“Imagine how irresponsible a government can be when they went into agreements with ASUU and signed conditions that they couldn’t fulfill and that is why ASUU is on strike so let us tell Nigerians that ASUU is not on strike because APC signed an agreement with them. It was the PDP that signed the agreement.”

“We are not shifting blame; we are going to tackle the problem. Between 1999 and 2015 when they handed over to the APC, ASUU was on strike 12 times. I have the statistics amounting to 900 days.”

Keyamo made the statement on Monday, August 15, 2022 during an interview on a television programme.
