The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, on Thursday, said it
is the responsibility of the Academic Staff Union of Universities to compensate
students for the time wasted during the six-month strike, not the Federal
Government.
He also said the government will not concede to the union’s
demand to pay lecturers their emoluments for the six months of no academic
activities.
Adamu suggested that the affected students should “take ASUU
to court” to claim damages incurred over the strike period.
The Education minister said this at the 47th Session of the
State House Ministerial Briefing organised by the Presidential Communications
Team at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.
According to him, the federal government bears no liability
to compensate millions of students grounded for six months over lost time.
He also said if the students are determined to get compensated,
they should take ASUU to court.
