ASUU strike: FG pleads with lecturers, promises to pay new minimum wage

-
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige has pleaded with striking university teachers to show mercy on students by calling off their strike. The teachers, under the auspices of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), began a nationwide strike since November, last year, over some disagreement between the union and the Federal Government. Ngige, speaking with reporters in Awka, Anambra State on Sunday, also declared that Federal Government would pay a minimum wage, adding that things were being worked out by the Committee saddled with that responsibility. He said: “FG will comfortably pay minimum wage, we want to pay it, but there must be balancing because figures were bandied and we are asking Labour to exercise patience. “I appeal to ASUU and Labour to have mercy on students and be patient. As far as I’m concerned, we have treated Labour well. And they should also know I’m a comrade and that is why I always intervened on matters that concern them.” T...

I Will Only Take Chelsea Job If They Give Me £200m And Keep Hazard - Zidane

-


The French legend is keen to talk seriously about taking over as boss and turn the Blues into contenders again at home and abroad with a £200m transfer kitty.
If he were to succeed under-pressure Maurizio Sarri, Zidane has a three-part wishlist:
1) New bumper deal for superstar playmaker Eden Hazard, keeping the Belgian to build a team around.
2) £200m to improve the squad — more if he sells players who are currently at Stamford Bridge but are out of favour.
3) A major say in recruitment alongside Blues director Marina Granovskaia.
SunSport revealed last week that Chelsea ’s top brass wanted Zidane, who has won the Champions League three times as manager and once as a playe at Real Madrid.
Sarri remains in charge for now and has some huge games coming up — starting with Manchester Unite at home in the FA Cup fifth round tonight.
The Carabao Cup final against Manchester City on Sunday also feels like a defining moment.
Sources close to Zizou have told SunSport he is not yet expecting to be given the job, as he respects that current chief Sarri is still in control of his own destiny.
He knows if Sarri wins the Carabao Cup — perhaps even the FA Cup — and qualifies for the Champions League in his first season as manager, that is no mean feat.
But two defeats to both Manchester clubs this week could prove a fatal blow for the Italian.
Sarri oversaw the humiliating 6-0 defeat to Manchester City a week ago but he has vowed not to change his style.
