I am suspending my focus on your Speaker of House of Representatives. I hopefully will re-touch next week, barring the un-expected, the first among equals in our House of Polifoolicians (H of P). For now I am yielding space to a reader who introduced himself to me as an un-employed Nigerian graduate – a delightfully articulate fellow. He is Dele Owolowo. Enjoy his peculiar rhythm on the ASUU-FGN’s intangible and tangible battle of wits and bluffs:
Hearty
greetings to you, Sir and thank you, for the excellent pieces on ASUU.
On the ASUU-FGN issue ASUU would remain on the back foot while the government
calls the shots. The main reason our education sector can be belittled and
seemingly betrayed is because it is a sector with few economic aces to play and
for this reason it brings little to the economic table (kindly clip the
education sector I sent to your WhatsApp). We are running a knowledge-based
rather than a productivity-based education value chain with the tertiary sector
at the top of this economically unproductive value chain.
