The Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar has expressed worry over the lingering
industrial impasse between the Federal Government and labour unions in critical
sectors of the country.
In particular, the former Vice
President expressed his worry about the “deadlock between the Federal
Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), which is
altering the future of our youths and putting families under undue pressure.”
Atiku said he had already “set
out templates to handle all related issues and ensure an end to incessant
labour crisis, ensure industrial harmony and greater productivity in all
sectors, immediately he is elected into office as President.”
The Waziri of Adamawa’s worries
were conveyed by the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation and was contained
in a statement signed by the party’s spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan,
yesterday.
The statement reads, “Knowing the
importance of education and youth development to national cohesion, stability,
development and economic prosperity, Atiku Abubakar has already articulated a
clear and practical roadmap towards resolving all issues hampering education in
Nigeria in his policy document, which
embodies the aspiration and
wishes of all Nigerians in their overall productive ventures.
“Our candidate has made ample
provisions for enhanced welfare packages, research grants, better teaching and
learning environment as well as a strong synergy between the union and
government towards a harmonious working environment.
“We, therefore, urge Nigerians
not to despair but to continue to rally behind Atiku Abubakar in the
all-important mission of rescuing our nation from the misrule of the President
Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration, which has
shown gross incompetence and insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians.”
