“I appeal to ASUU, I appeal to government,” Professor Oloyede said. “Please solve the problem so our children can go back to school.

“Even if ASUU goes back to the classroom, that will not prevent it from happening tomorrow.

“I believe that what we should do is to look at the system. And take some very hard decisions.

“If we do not take hard decisions, we are postponing the evil day.”
