He urged religious leaders and traditional title holders in the country to work with other educational partners, non-governmental organizations, UNICEF, and UNESCO to find a peaceful solution to the strike’s difficulties.

“We were hopeful that by the end of ASUU’s one-month warning strike, both ASUU and the federal government would have reached an agreement,” Danjuma says, “but it’s regrettable that ASUU is embarking on another two-month strike.” We were convinced that it would have an impact on our kids and the country’s educational standards.”

Adding months at home, he said, would have major ramifications for the educational sector, as well as the economy, agriculture, and other areas of the country.
