Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday told the All
Progressives Congress (APC) Governors that they need to act fast on Nigeria’s
economy and the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities
(ASUU).
Osinbajo stated this when he received the APC Governors in
his office at the Presidential Villa on a felicitation visit as he recovers
from a knee surgery.
While welcoming the Governors, the Vice President expressed
his appreciation for the visit and the good wishes.
Osinbajo also commended the expertise of Nigerian doctors
and the availability of cutting-edge medical facilities existing in the
country.
He, however, regretted that doctors are restrained by
regulations to advertise and as a result, many people are unaware of the level
of quality medical services available locally.
During the brief interaction at the meeting, important
national issues were also raised, especially regarding the economy and the ASUU
strike.
Osinbajo and the Governors then agreed to engage these and
other pressing issues further with a view to bringing urgent resolution for the
benefit of the Nigerian people.
According to Osinbajo, “we all need to work together on this
critical issue. We need to think through things, and we need to do it fast.”
The Vice President’s call follows the extension of the
ongoing strike again on Monday by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
