EndSARS: Buhari’s Minister, Ngige blames ASUU for protest

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, has blamed the ongoing civil protest in Nigeria on the industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of University, ASUU.

Ngige said this during a reconciliation meeting between the Federal Government and ASUU on Thursday in Abuja.

According to the minister: “For the past one week, we have all been on our toes, we have been meeting and we pray that this meeting will yield good fruits.

“We don’t take pleasure to the fact that the children who are supposed to be in school are being recruited into the EndSARS, #EndStrike, #EndSWAT campaign.

“As much as possible, we will try to see how we can meet ourselves halfway, so that we can resolve this crisis to the benefits of all and the country at large.”
