It's not that I want school to reopen but the Fed Govt should just stop telling us Covid-19 is the reason schools are being closed and find a way to resolve this ASUU issue…

ASUU and Resident Doctors are the groups that are on strike always. Apparently they are never satisfied with any conditions of employment. Even with the Corona virus pandemic is not their concern. They are after the money. https://t.co/7sMphzwmio

ASUU is as selfish as the FG. Matter of fact, they are two mad men riding the same bicycle to nowhere. The FG doesn't care and neither does ASUU. We acknowledge that money is the running wheel for effects but why make the Money the circle of life as pertaining to education? Damn!
