I have already given directives to the governing council, which represents the government in the management of that university\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor about seven months they have been on strike. They call it a sympathy strike because the very local issues that they raised with our government have already been sorted out. So they have no problem with the state government. About two or three months ago, I met with the leadership at a meeting not to continue the sympathy strike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yes, they are all unionists. However, in Nigeria, there are two layers of government that are totally different\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe issues are with the federal universities and not the state institutions. State-owned institutions in our sister states like Rivers and Delta did not join the strike or have called off theirs. I would like the Niger Delta University to follow suit by calling off the strike. You all know that you cannot be receiving salaries and you do not go to work for seven months. Like I said, I have set up the machinery and I am very sure that reasoning will prevail. NDU will resume in the shortest possible time for our children to go back to school,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri has urged lecturers at the state-owned Niger Delta University (NDU) to end their seven-month-long sympathy strike with the national body of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
