The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has said that its members see themselves as victims of the Federal Government, just as students see themselves as victims of the ongoing situation.

The national president of the union, Prof Chris Piwuna, made this statement on Monday while responding to questions during an interview on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.

This comes barely 24 hours after university lecturers embarked on a two-day warning strike to press home their demands.

“Both Nigerian students and the lecturers are victims of government inaction and several other things.

“So, we see ourselves as victims of this government the way students see themselves as victims of what is going on.

“It is not my plan to respond to what the Minister of Education said that the federal government has met all our plans. He’s a minister appointed by President Bola Tinubu. He’s our boss but we need to work hand-in-hand,” he said.
