Get Ready For PDP's Grand Plan, ASUU Urges Nigerians

The Academic Staff Union of Universities has urged Nigerians to resist an alleged grand plan by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party to send the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, on terminal leave.
ASUU made the statement ‎in a resolution reached at the end of a National Symposium on the 2015 elections and signed by Chairman of the union at the University of Ibadan chapter, Prof. Segun Ajiboye.
According to the Nation newspaper online, the academic union asked Nigerians to be alert to the grand plan to scuttle 2015 general election.

It was also stated that ASUU warned the cabals to tread with caution as the Nigerians are too sensitive to be forced to succumb to tyrannical ploy.

The union said: “Having succeeded in using military chiefs to influence the shifting of the polls, the next plan on their agenda is to ask Prof. Attahiru Jega to proceed on terminal leave, while they bring a willing tool who will do their bidding to rig the elections in their favour.”

ASUU noted that anyone who emerges from a credible, free and fair election must be ready to implement fully the 2009 agreement reached with the union.
According to the resolution, a purpose and focused attention on education will engender development in Nigeria.

Meanwhile, ASUU had last week cautioned President Goodluck Jonathan not to use the current security situation in the country as a pretext to frustrate the genuine efforts of Nigerians seeking change.
