Tinubu's Aide Claims Foundation Laid to End Lecturers' Strikes
Issah Niniola, the Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Protocol, stated that President Tinubu has laid a solid foundation aimed at permanently ending the frequent strikes by lecturers in Nigeria's tertiary institutions. Niniola made this declaration on Monday in Oba-Oke, Olorunda Local Government Area of Osun, while distributing educational materials to students through his foundation, Issah Adedotun Foundation.
He expressed confidence that there would be no more strikes due to the President's initiatives, which include the Nigeria Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) and allowances for lecturers. Niniola urged support for Tinubu's bid for a second term, emphasizing his commitment to education and other sectors.
He also highlighted his long-standing passion for supporting education, particularly for vulnerable children. During the event, Toyin Adegoke, Deputy State Commander of NDLEA, addressed the issues of drug abuse and cultism, encouraging students to focus on their education.
