LETTER TO MY FELLOW STUDENTS:
It’s more than four months and we are still sitting
silently in this dungeon, like a patient waiting helplessly for the sharp blade
of the knife of the surgeon. We have been help against our will, as captives of
a decayed academic structure.
What is
rightfully ours have been forcefully taken from us. We have been denied our
mental food; our limbs are now too weak to fight back.
The
infamous Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) is gradually digging the
foundation of our future (education), and has left us in the bitter experience
of psychosomatic trauma. In a bid to salvage the academic structure, they are
gradually unearthing the foundation of those structures.
Our
education sector is now a victim of the whims and caprice of politics. This
strike is a typical solecism of our lettered professors. Their much vaunted
academic prowess has been put to question, following their recent actions.
We have
heard and received a lot of canards with regards to the strike. But the truth
is that we are not going back to school anytime soon. the last NEC meeting held
on Saturday 23rd November 2013, was just another of those meeting held, merely
to waste time and to fulfill all righteousness, as no conclusions were reached.
While 60% of the academic gurus agitated for a call off, the rest were praying
for a probe into the death of their colleague who they claimed was
assassinated, and so the strike can go on.
It is
our belief that one day we shall be free from the mental torture and inhumane
treatment meted on us by our captors (ASUU). This is a battle for our right and
we must fight to any
height.
Yours Sincerely
Augustus C.
