Final whistle

There has been a tug of war between the government and the ASUU for the past few months; this strike is felt more by the students than any other. The government and the ASUU are just like two big elephants that are fighting; and the students being the grasses are at the receiving end.
By the time the strike would be called off, the school calendar might be altered or academic activities rushed to remedy the alterations. Besides, the students would need extra effort to cope with their studies because their brains have been inactive.
At the moment, Nigerian universities are in a holdup: prospective students can’t be admitted, undergraduates are predisposed to crime because of idleness and lack, final-year students cannot round off and fresh graduates are incapable of completing their clearance.
This is no longer a matter of “who is right or wrong” because if we are to go on like this, then Nigerian education has a bleak future.
