Former Military Administrator of Taraba and Oyo States, Dr Amen Oyakhire has asked the Federal Government to address the grievances of members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, which has led to the closure of universities in the last 88 days, saying that ''government is not treating ASUU properly.''
.
Oyakhire spoke in an interview with Saturday Vanguard in Benin City, as the strike by ASUU entred its 88th day today.

This was even as the Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, also yesterday called on the Federal Government and ASUU to reach amicable settlement to end the ongoing strike by university lecturers.

National Publicity Secretary of  ACF, Mr Anthony Sani, who made this known said the strike had brought untold hardship on students, parents and the education sector, and needed to be called off.
