-As Nigerian public universities remain shut down
Zahra B. Buhari, one of the daughters of Nigerian President Muhammad Buhari, Tuesday graduated from the United Kingdom University with a first-class degree.
Aisha Buhari, wife of Mr President made this known on her social media wall.
“Congratulations to Mrs Zahra B Buhari on your graduation with First Class Honors in Architectural Science. Wishing you all the best,” she posted.
Recall that public universities in Nigeria have remained shut down as both the Buhari-led government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities failed to reach an agreement.
Zahra’s graduation comes amid an industrial action embarked on by public university lecturers across the country.
The strike is in its seventh month.
ASUU and the Buhari-led government have been at loggerheads over poor funding of universities and the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System, a platform on which the government said all lecturers must be registered or they would not be paid salaries.
The disagreement between both parties has led to the closure of all government universities for the last eight months. - SaharaReporters.
