Tinubu’s govt pledges to honour varsity agreements, prioritize education sector stability

In a bid to address the frustrations stemming from past unfulfilled promises by previous governments, the Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, has reassured university unions that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is committed to honouring agreements signed with them.

Speaking during the 3rd quadrennial national delegates conference of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) in Abuja, Alausa urged unions, especially in the education sector, to prioritize students’ welfare and seek dialogue over strike actions, stating that strikes should only be a last resort.
