ASUU Strike - NLC Makes Fresh Intervention




According to Mr. Chris Uyot, the Acting General Secretary of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), the union has began another move to intervene in the impasse between the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the Federal Government.

"The leadership of NLC has written a letter to the Presidency seeking leave to intervene in the crisis which is now in its sixth month.

"We have sent a letter to the presidency today, Dec. 9. We want to intervene in this matter.

"The turn of events is causing a lot of disaffection which can easily be resolved, that is if the government is willing to talk about it," Uyot said.

Uyot said that NLC President Abdulwahed Omar met with the leadership of ASUU in Abuja as a preliminary step to articulate their position before meeting with the Presidency when invited.

How to Turn On/Off Damaged Power Button on iPhone/iPad

If you're an iPhone or iPad user, then you might not realise just how much you end up using the power on your phone. The home button is essential to navigate through your device, and the use of the volume buttons and the mute switch on the side is pretty obvious too, but if your power button stops working, you can't turn your phone off - or back on again for that matter. It's also pretty easy to damage, with external factors such as excess humidity or dust that can make it stop working. You can get by without switching off the iOS device, but it is always good to be able to turn the phone off if needed. These simple steps to switch off the device without touching the power button could come in really handy. Open Settings . Go to General > Accessibility .
