ASUU Blasts Jonathan Over Shift Of Poll Date

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)  has cautioned President Jonathan not to use the current security situation in the country as a pretext to frustrate the genuine efforts of Nigerians seeking change.

The Ibadan Zonal Coordinator of ASUU and Chairman of University of Ibadan chapter, Prof. Segun Ajiboye, made this warning known to The Nation yesterday February 8, while reacting to news on the postponement of the general election.
He said “The decision is a serious setback for Nigerian democracy. But we should remain steadfast. This is time-buying game. It will not work. Let us organise and not agonise.”
In the same vein, ASUU president, Dr. Nasir Fagge, in a phone interview with the Nation, urged Nigerians to ensure they use the polls to usher in new leaders that are interested in the people and the nation’s development.
Dr. Fagge noted that the challenge before Nigerians is how to ensure the emergence of a leadership with focus on the people and the nation’s institutions.
The Announcement was made at a press conference in Abuja on February 7, Saturday. The chairman of the Commission, Attahiru Jega, said the presidential and national assembly elections will now hold on March 28 while the governorship and state assemblies election will take place on April 11
