The National President, Parents Teachers Association (PTA), Alhaji Danjuma Haruna, has implored the Federal Government to continue to dialogue with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) until the knotty issues are resolved.

Haruna made the call on Monday in Kaduna during an interactive session with newsmen.

He said the strike came amidst the increase in the prices of foodstuffs and fuel and the security challenges facing the country

“We don’t want our children to spend three months at home because of strike.

“We are begging the Federal Government, as a matter of urgency, to go back and resolve issues with ASUU,” he said.

Haruna appealed to ASUU to have a rethink over the issues and urged the Federal Government to listen to

the demands of the lecturers to save students from wasting away.
