David Bob-Manuel (Prelate of the Eternal Sacred Order of the Cherubim, and Seraphim Church Worldwide) has urged the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities to resolve the lingering strike with urgency.
Bob-Manuel called the press conference on Wednesday to mark his fifth induction in the Surulere region of Lagos State.

In his address, the leader stated that the strike was a major obstacle to the development of human capital. He also said that certificates from tertiary institutions were of no or little value.

He stated, "Aside from insecurity and the ongoing strike of ASUU, it is one the most pressing issues in Nigeria." ASUU has been striking since February, more than six months ago. These prolonged interruptions to university education are detrimental to the development of human capital. Certificates from tertiary institutions are of no or little value.

"Public universities, which were the delight of all parents, have been brought to their lowest ebb. The advancement of quality education is the bedrock of technological development for any country. It should be unacceptable for any country to allow its youths to be out of school for so long, roaming the streets and subjected to the whims of life.

“I hereby urge the Federal Government, ASUU, and all stakeholders in the educational sector to resolve the lingering strike with the urgency it demands to save this sector from total collapse. The effect of immediate resolution will positively resonate in the education sector and enhance quality learning. Let the future leaders of this country go back to school.”

Bob-Manuel urged Nigerians to prayerfully choose their leaders in the forthcoming general elections.
