Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti has come out to say that the Federal Government will soon resolve the ongoing ASUU strike.

He recently revealed this while speaking during the 24th Convocation Ceremony of Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, and added that both parties are close to resolving the crisis.

According to him, he has had the chance to be part of negotiations between government and ASUU, so he can confidently say that the strike will be over soon.

He then challenged the graduating students of today to see themselves as the future of Nigeria.

His words, “This is a period when academic curricular of our citadels of learning should be tailored towards meeting the realities of our contemporary Nigeria and the antidote for its various challenges.

β€œIt is a generally accepted norm that only qualified staff and students could innovate and steer the ship of our university system as well as Nigeria as a nation to our expected shore. Therefore, I challenge the graduating students of today to see themselves as the future of Nigeria.”
