Which Way, Nigeria?

I will continue to share this essay until President Buhari and his Advisers do the right thing and allow students at Nigerian public universities to go back to school. This is no longer about incompetence or poverty of ideas, but downright criminal (willful and malicious conduct). It is a sin against humanity. I purposely left his cabinet out of this because the executive branch is moribund. How else can one explain Dr. Chris Ngige (Labour) and Mallam Adamu Adamu's (Education) dismissive approach to ASUU and its demands in the face of the heightened impasse between the two parties since the inception of the 2021/22 academic year? Someone has to be a leader for a second. The term "compromise and seeing the other side" is not an aberration; otherwise, it would not have been the core element of negotiation and mediation. And whatever ASUU gets out of the impasse, it should rest assured that history won't be kind to them and will never forgive them. The interests of our university students and the overall university system ought to be overriding, but right now, Nigerians are confused. We don't know who is right or wrong between the parties. What I do know is that we have crude oil and gas on the ground, untapped. Do the right thing and will have money - lots of it - to spend. It's as simple as that.
