The minister said it was the responsibility of the Academic Staff Union of Universities ASUU to compensate students for the time wasted during the six-month strike, and not the Federal Government.

The minister of education, Adamu Adamu suggested that the affected students should “take ASUU to court” to claim damages incurred over the strike period.

The Education minister said this at the 47th Session of the State House Ministerial Briefing organised by the Presidential Communications Team at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.

Reacting to the development, Nigerians took to their handles to blast the Minister.

See reactions below:

@gabethproducer: Just listen to what the person in charge of our educational sector is saying.

And you think your government cares about you. My pity is for those who are still waiting for the strike to be called off. What makes you think they won’t go on strike again if this is called off?

@chukwumahmac: A Yoruba academia should have been made minister of education, I see no point making someone from the north minister of education, no sound policy has been made in the educational sector for some time now

@southwest_judge: Even though adamu is always saying rubbish but wait. ASUU wants to be paid for keeping people at home for 6 months. Are they going to return the 6months of the students also like nothing ever happened.

@donnagold321: I don’t blame d minister, I blame the people that elected Buhari, I blame d Sen n rep for still allowing Buhari rule this country…… When we have such a president what do you expect from his ministers.
