Rabiu Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate of the New
Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, has said the lingering dispute between the Federal
Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, centres on
sincerity and accountability.
Kwankwaso disclosed this yesterday at the Arise Television
presidential town hall series.
He said that tackling corruption in the education sector is
necessary as it would ensure effectiveness.
“The whole ASUU issue boils down to sincerity, honesty and
accountability. When I was governor, our State branches of ASUU excused
themselves from the strike, due to our fair treatment of their schools. We’ll
ensure everyone will get their salaries and allowances.
“Our administration believes that the best way to go is to
invest as much as possible in Education. Corruption has to be tackled, as it’s
the main problem. Tackling corruption in the sector will ensure effectiveness,”
he said.
