ASUU strike: FG agrees to pay N30bn earned allowance

ASUU, FG delegations meet over strike on Thursday, October 15, 2020

‌

Adelani Adepegba,Abuja

The Federal Government has agreed to release N30 billion earned academic allowance to the university lecturers.

The money will be paid in tranches between May 2021 and February 2022.

The PUNCH gathered that the FG also promised to spend N20 billion on the revitalisation of the education sector as part of concessions meant to end the seven-month strike declared by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

These were part of the agreements reached during the ongoing meeting between the FG and ASUU leadership on Thursday.
Speaking earlier before going into a closed-door session, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, said students were being recruited into the protests following the closure of universities occasioned by the ASUU strike.

He expressed the hope that ASUU would call off the strike soon, noting that the government has been finding ways to end the seven-month strike.

The government team was led by Ngige, his minister of state, Festus Keyamo (SAN), and others, while the ASUU delegation was led by its President, Prof Biodun Ogunyemi.
Ngige said, “For the past one week, we have all been on our toes, we have been meeting and we pray that this meeting will yield some good fruits.

October 12 resumption date: Lecturers can’t work on empty stomach, strike indefinite – ASUU

Interesting: Resign to start farming, ASUU replies Minister Of State for Education Chukwuemeka Nwajuiba.

* *
*ASUU STRIKE:*
The minister of state for Education Mr. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba said this concerning the ongoing ASUU strike and we quote:

"Government is actually not holding anyone to ransom. It says this is how I want to pay and it has to be through IPPIS. You can leave the employment."
"You can opt out of it and say I no longer want to teach. You can find other professions. What we need now are probably more farmers."

"You cannot keep forcing your employer and tell him, 1 will like you to pay me my money through my pillow. Or, I will like you to pay it through this mailbox. ASUU has a lot of complaints and dissipation around it. That is legitimate but doesn't mean you should force you."

*Unverified and Hinted from high stakeholder :* We(Universities under ASUU) may not resume this year because of the slow, unproductive and uncooperative way the FG is handling the ASUU issues.

Hinted: FG is not ready to drop the IPPIS issue that leads to the ongoing strike and ASUU is not ready to call off the strike without suitable Negotiation and agreement.
