For students of politics and political education of the ruling class, the youth #EndSARS protests represent national political evolution and consciousness. No doubt, the ASUU strike and the coronavirus pandemic have placed the nation’s education on a momentous crossroad. There are few prominent voices in government circles genuinely wishing for the end to ASUU strike and for government to do the needful. However, since the academic teachers’ strike, the ruling government has denounced the strike action with vigour, threatening fire and brimstone against ASUU. The continued disagreement between them is neither in the interest of the students nor the education system in which both parties play frontline roles to salvage.
