The lingering strike caused by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the federal government is indeed a nightmare to students’ future, and to the nation’s education sector, by extension.
As the ASUU’s fresh four weeks warning strike is over the Nigerian government’s refusal to implement the Memorandum of Action (MoU) that led to the suspension of its nine-month prolonged strike in 2020. This endless acrimony between the federal government, and incapacitates students’ studies and muddles their academic sessions.

Students across the country from different universities will be going back helter-skelter to their various homes. Those who were engaged in businesses will continue from where they stopped, likewise to hand workers.
Handwork is one of the most reliable means of income in today’s world economy. Students can learn the following handwork: Mobile phones repair, shoemaking and repairs, makeup business, web development, mobile apps development, graphic design and graphic art, laptop repair, professional photography, baking (snacks, making cakes), web design, painting, digital marketing, painting, electronic repairs (Television, radio, etc), hairstyling, iron bending, and panel beating, etc.
