10,000 thousand is not our problem, Put more pressure on FG :ASUU

-

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has rejected the proposal by the National Parent-Teacher Association of Nigeria to pay the union a minimum of N10,000 per parent in every academic section in an effort to end the lingering industrial action.DAILY POST recalls that NAPTAN’s Public Relations Officer, Dr. Ademola Ekundayo, in a recent interview, said the move was to aid the Federal Government to meet ASUU’s demands.

Reacting to the proposal, ASUU’s National President, Professor Emmanuel Osodeke while appearing on Arise Television on Thursday rejected the offer, urging the association to rather mount more pressure on the FG.

He said, “I think what this association should be doing is to tell the government to perform its function. They should put pressure on the government to use Nigerians’ money to fund education as it is done in other countries.

“We can’t be calling ourselves the giant of Africa and we are the worst in education. You see students from Nigeria going to Ghana, Benin Republic, Togo, and other small countries to study but nobody from these countries are coming to Nigeria to study.

“So they should add to the pressure coming from ASUU to ensure that the government prioritize education. That is more important than the N10,000”.

3 things you should not share with friends or family members

-
Image
Sometimes we want to be free with people and share our things with them. Sharing is not a bad thing to do but there are some personal things we should never share with our friends or with family members. When we do this, it's not because we are greedy or we don't want to share. According to Healthline, some things can't just be shared for medical reasons. If we do, there's the possibility of developing diseases and because of this, it's better we don't share them at all. Lipstick or lip gloss: This is common for ladies, whenever a lady forgets her make up kits at home, she would try to borrow them from her friend. If everything would be borrowed, lipstick or lip gloss shouldn't be among them. Diseases like herpes can easily be developed while sharing our lipstick or lip gloss. Headphones: Sharing headphones can be dangerous to our ears. This is because each person has a unique balance of bacterial flora in their ear wax. When we share headphones, we run the ...

What a player – Gary Neville blasts Man United for failing to sign Liverpool star

-

Former Manchester United star, Gary Neville has hit out at the club’s recruitment system for failing to sign Liverpool winger, Luis Diaz. Neville heaped praise on Diaz for the impact he has had since joining Liverpool from FC Porto in January. Liverpool snapped up the Colombian international from right under Tottenham Hotspur’s nose for £37 million. While Man United was linked with Diaz for a brief time, nothing materialized from it as they didn’t push hard for the 25-year-old. It’s unbelievable that Diaz was going to Tottenham, he is then gone to Liverpool – there has not even been a mention of him going to Manchester United,” Neville told Sky Sports. “Manchester United are going to lose [Edinson] Cavani at the end of the season, probably going to lose [Paul] Pogba, they have lost [Mason] Greenwood, [Marcus] Rashford’s out of form, [Anthony] Martial’s gone to Sevilla but will probably go at the end of the season.” “So you think they are going to need two or three at the en...

No Student Was Raped Under Our Watch’ — Chrisland School Finally Reacts To Sex Scandal

-

We have followed up on reports making the rounds on certain developments bordering on the morals and ethics of some of the students under our care, who represented the school at the World School games, Dubai between 8 and 14 of March 2022. While we understand the emotions this has generated, we assure the public that our first approach as an institution was to assume parental roles by offering support to those involved and ensuring that nothing affected their senses of esteem. However, after a comprehensive evaluation of the situation, we cannot help but express how scandalised and distressed we feel as mothers, fathers and instructors with a relationship that holds a direct bearing on the development of those involved. Nonetheless, we took a critical view of the number of students who partook in this recent trip and who did the school proud in our quest to expand the horizons of our students holistically through global exposure, which takes into account a wholesome development of the ...
