President BOLA TINUBU has appointed JOSEPH TEGBE as Director-General and Global Liaison for the Nigeria-China strategic partnership. The development followed a commitment by the two countries to establish hospital alliances and collaborate on medical research.

Federal Government Hands Over 64 New CNG Buses to Organized Labour and Student Union

The Federal Government has procured and handed over 64, 100-seater capacity compressed natural gas, CNG buses.

The buses were handed over to organised labour and student union leadership in Abuja on Sunday during a brief ceremony at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja.

The Federal Government, through the presidency, also made available over 400 compressed natural gas conversion kits handed to private sector transporters in four states as part of efforts to lower the cost of fuelling vehicles used for public transportation.

Owing to the outcry from many Nigerians about the hike in transportation costs following the fuel subsidy removal policy, the presidency has been upbeat, trying to convince motorists to convert to CNG to reduce their energy expenses.

The organised labour over the months since the fuel subsidy was removed has consistently harped on the need for the TINUBU-led administration to put palliative measures in place, including a substantial number of CNG vehicles on the road.

Blame the Federal Government for Any Industrial Unrest – ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities – ASUU has warned that the Federal Government should be held responsible for any industrial unrest in Nigeria’s public universities.

ASUU issued the warning in a statement signed by the union’s Federal University, Dutse, FUD, Chairman, Comrade DR SALIM AHMAD.

The union noted that over the past four years, Nigeria’s public universities have been in a state of industrial disharmony, leading to two costly and avoidable strike actions.

The statement added that after the expiration of the 21-day ultimatum, the Federal Government has not demonstrated any genuine commitment to address the issues in contention.

ASUU said failure of the Federal Government to meet the monetary and non-monetary demands of the union is brewing industrial disharmony in Nigeria’s public universities.
