President Goodluck Jonathan to re-negotiate with the aggrieved Union, in order

to listen to the lecturers, we have no choice than to stop the supply of meat
to markets and our women from selling milk (fura da nunu).
We have been making efforts to
enlighten our people about education, but the government is not encouraging us
at all,” Bodejo said. Badejo also called on the Union to consider the situation
and return to class in the interests of Nigerian students.
