ASUU strike; A blessing in disguise for undergraduates.

This write up is inspired by a report I read which has it that the strike embarked upon by ASUU since July 2, 2013 has forced many students in Abeokuta and its environs to register for various vocational
trainings *raised eyebrows*.

The strike may be a blessing in disguise as many of the students may end up using the trade learnt
while it lasted to better their lives in future, but as laudable as this initiative of the undergraduates may be, I have one fear for them which is that the strike may be called off at any moment thus putting the kibash on the completion of their trainings.

In other news, it is a common knowledge that Nigeria has enough clairvoyants. In fact, the country is brimming with them. From the gods of men in Lagos synagogues to the ordinary man at the street corner who would always correctly tell you the team to carry a match even when the game is still afoot *grin*.

We have them here. It is just that they have not redirected their ability to this all-important area so needed by Nigerians. Given their wizardry in the act, I don’t want to believe that telling when a strike would end is too much a thing for them to foresee. No it can’t be, not when these men stay in Nigeria and predict what is to happen overseas and it happens just as they presaged. Better still, any of the two sides to the trade dispute should be magnanimous to let us know the length of days the strike would take, for both of them are in a position to so has to waste undergraduates time.

Finally, a big congratulations to those undergraduates that are making good use of this strike to add value to themselves, because sincerely,its going to be a thing of a shame that any undergraduate will return to school after the strike without adding any value to himself due to the excuse of not knowing when the strike will be over.
Not taking risk is the biggest risk.
At the end those that take risk achieve greater heights.

Other undergraduates, its better late than never. You can start something now so as to make the strike days count.
