Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has challenged the All Progressives Congress (APC) led government on the state of the polity, advising the visiting Governors on the platform of the party that, “we need to act fast on the economy and the Academic Staff Union of Universities, (ASUU).

The Nigerian economy has been on its kneels with disturbing indicators.
The public debts have been on the rise, naira has been experiencing free fall, budget deficits alarming, fragile growth as well as rising inflation and unemployment, among others.
Students in public universities have been home for over six months and ASUU has come out with a new resolve of Indefinite strike, an action that may have jolted Nigerians, even as managers and handlers of the education sector seem not bothered about the plight of the parents

Osinbajo received APC Governors on Tuesday in his office at the Presidential Villa on a felicitation visit as he recovers from the surgery done last month.

While welcoming the Governors, Prof. Osinbajo expressed his appreciation for the visit and the good wishes.The VP also commended the expertise of Nigerian doctors, and the availability of cutting-edge medical facilities existing in the country.

But he regretted that doctors are restrained by regulations from advertising and as a result many people are unaware of the level of quality medical services available locally.

During the brief interaction that followed at the meeting, important national issues were also raised especially regarding the economy and the ASUU strike.

The Vice President 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 the Vice President “we all need to work together on these critical issues. We need to think through things, and we need to do it fast.”
