The union said the government has not shown interest in addressing the problems of the Education sector.
It also said the government was feigning ignorance about the union’s demands.
The National Convener, ASUU Committee on Human Rights, Dr Sola Olorunyomi, spoke on a Splash FM programme, “Voices”, monitored in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
He said ASUU’s leaders, who met with representatives of the Federal Government, were shocked when the government feigned ignorance about the strike and its agreement.
The academic explained that it was only when the representatives were shown the government’s signature on the document that the reality dawned on them.
Olorunyomi said: “We are resolute this time. We are prepared to go hungry. You can’t believe that the people we met first feigned ignorance about the agreement. It was not until our team brought out the memorandum of agreement and then some of them saw their signatures. It was a drama of sorts. But you can only have that in Nigeria.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
