THE PDP-LED GOVERNMENT IS THE REASON ASUU IS ON STRIKE - FESTUS KEYAMO

According to Festus Keyamo, a spokesman for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council, has said that the 2009 deal signed by the PDP-led government is the reason ASUU is on strike.
Keyamo made this on Monday in an interview with Trust TV’s Daily Politics.

He continued by saying that ASUU went on strike 12 times, for a total of 900 days, between 1999 and 2015, before the PDP handed over to the ruling APC.

He added: “PDP agreements with ASUU they couldn’t fulfill. We had to inherit those a

reements and now struggling to renegotiate those agreements.”

He also tagged the past Government ‘respo soble’ for signing agreement “they couldn’t fulfill and that is why ASUU is on strike so let us tell Nigerians that ASUU is not on strike because APC signed an agreement with them.

“It was the PDP that signed the agreement. We are not shifting blame; we are going to tackle the problem. Between 1999 and 2015 when they handed over to the APC, ASUU was on strike 12 times. I have the statistics amounting to 900 days.”

But in response, Daniel Bwala, a spokesman for the (PDP) presidential campaign, who appeared on Trust TV with Keyamo, claimed there were productive engagements between the parties during the PDP government when ASUU or any of the labor unions was on strike
