The Kano University of Technology Alumni
Association has declared that industrial action
always embarked by the university lecturers was
no longer fashionable in Nigeria.
The association also charged the striking
university lecturers to be creative in fighting the
course of education in the country.
Addressing the Press in Kano shortly after its
maiden annual general meeting, one of the
members of the alumni group, Fahad Ibrahim
Danladi, stated that "resorting to industrial
action as a means of arm twisting the federal
government overtime has not in any way yielded
any positive result, more especially now that
downing of tools has become a bandwagon in
resolving industrial dispute in Nigeria.
"I personally believe that their approach should
be different from the current practice which in
my opinion would refocus the strategy in
industrial dispute. I don't subscribed to this
whole concept of strike action that has been
made notorious. It has not work out anything
and I don't think it's a panacea to the lingering
problems facing education in Nigeria."
Danladi though, agreed that ASUU is fighting a
genuine course but maintained that the
association's position is that there has to be
alternative to strike to save the future of the
teeming students.
"I'm saying with all modesty that the industrial
actions of the ASUU has been detrimental to the
nation's education sector and has not yielded any
positives and as such they should change tactics
and adopt new measures that are going to help
the education."
The KUT alumni however urged the federal
government to see to the quick resolution of the
impasse to allow students resume lectures and
other academic activities.
